Abstract

Medicinal plants have been widely used in the treatment of various diseases for human health. The present aim of this study was to investigate and identify the bioactive compounds from crude extracts of Psammogeton biternatum Edgew. It belongs to the family Apiaceae. There are numerous advanced techniques were used like NMR and HMBC. Three new pure compounds i.e., compound 1, compound 2 and compound 3 were isolated from the chloroform fraction of the plant. These compounds were screened for enzyme inhibition which was found more potent than the standard. In addition, an in silico molecular docking analysis was also performed with the target enzyme α-glucosidase which potential target for diabetic patients. Among all the three compounds, compound 3 showed the best docking score of -7.6 kcal/mol with the target enzyme. Moreover, in the future, this study can shed light on the development of plant therapeutics for diabetic patients.
