Abstract
Artemisia rehan , Ohiov (1), known by the local
name Mr it' is an endemic plant to Ethiopia. An in
vitro antimnlarial test of the crude extract gave an
IC 50 of 50 ug ml- 1.
Artemotin and a sesquiterpene lactone were isolated
from the aerial parts of the plant , 1rtemetin
was identified by its melting point -> nd spectral data
MS , IR , NMR and 13C-NMR. IR , ^HNME , 13C-NMR and chemical
studies vifiro carried out to elucidate the structure
of the* sesquiterpene. Vulgarin , a Compound that
was previously isolated from the same plant was analyzed
1 13 by two dimensional H and C- NMR including COLOG specs
troscopic techniques.
