Abstract
The traditional Indian systems of medicine, specifically Ayurvedic and Siddha, frequently utilize the fruits and seeds of Semecarpus anacardium for treating cancer and various ailments due to their rich composition of secondary metabolites. This study aims to isolate, characterize, and identify phytochemicals from the seeds of Semecarpus anacardium. Phytochemicals were isolated using a reverse phase C18 column via preparative flash chromatography and characterized as catechol alkenyl derivatives through spectroscopic analyses, including HPLC, FTIR, UV, ¹³C NMR, ¹H NMR, and LCMS. The identified structures of the isolated phytochemicals were determined to be 1,2-dihydroxy-3-pentadec-8-enylbenzene (A) and 1,2-dihydroxy-3-pentadeca-8,11-dienylbenzene (B). This research builds on existing literature regarding the medicinal applications of Semecarpus anacardium as a source of alternative therapies for various conditions. Numerous studies have highlighted its unique properties, demonstrating anti-arthritic, antimicrobial, antihelminthic, antioxidant, and anti-cancer activities attributed to these phytochemicals.
