The results of the phytochemical screening showed thatLandolphiawariensis the plant contained alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids and glycosides. The results of the antidiarrhoeal screening of the crude extracts showed that exhibited zone of inhibition ranging from 15 mm to 35 mm against test microbes.Salmonella Ethyl-acetate Typhi, Shigelladysentriaeand extract of the Escherichaia Colirespectively being the most active fraction was subjected to column chromatography,1 leading13 to the isolation of single compound that showed a high activities (zone of inhibition from 8mm to 32mm) HNMR, CNMR against these causative agents of diarrhoea (Landolphiaowariensis ). Spectroscopic analysis of the isolated compound using , IR and GCMS showed that the compound was Cis-9-Octadecenoic acid.

Electrophilic fluorination is one of the electrophilic fluorination reactions being reported in the second most direct methods for selective introduction of fluorine into half of the 19th century [1,2]. Fluorinated molecules plays a organic compounds [14]. In this respect, various reagents for significant role in pharmaceutical/medicinal [3,4] agrochemical electrophilic fluorination have been developed till now as shown [5,6] and material sciences [7] due to the unique properties in (Figure 1). Elemental fluorine itself is one of the most powerful of fluorine atom [8]. The introduction of fluorine atom can reagents [15]. modulate the properties of biologically active compounds, since 3 3 this may lead to changes in lipophilicity, chemical reactivity, However, fluoroxcompounds3 13 [16], such as CF OF, CF C(O) solubility, conformation, ability of hydrogen-bonding [9]. As a OF, CsSO4F, and CH C(O)OF some of which are generated result, 30-40% of agrochemicals and 20-25% of pharmaceuticals in situ, are exciting reagents for the introduction of fluorine on the market are estimated to contain fluorine [10]. electrophilically into a wide variety of organic compounds [17,18]. Most electrophilic fluorinating reagents are ultimately The efficacy of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals derived from fluorine gas, the strongest elemental oxidant oftenly enhanced or it is due to the presence of fluorine atom known, which is synthesized by electrolysis of potassium in the structure [11]. Frequently, these type of compounds difluoride in hydrogen fluoride [19]. Electrophilic fluorination can be synthesized from small moieties in which fluorine is reactions with highly oxidizing fluorinating reagents [20] such Organic & Medicinal Chem IJ 3(4): OMCIJ.MS.ID.555620 (2017) 001 Organic and Medicinal Chemistry International Journal as fluorine gas, hypofluorites, fluoroxysulfates, and perchloryl was crucial for the development of selective, functional-group- N+ fluoride are challenging to perform due to the high reactivity of tolerant fluorination methods. Another class of2 electrophilic3 the reagents. Xenon difluoride was developed as a more stable fluorinating reagents with the general structure R N-F or R -F electrophilic fluorination source, but its high oxidation potential began to gain popularity. In comparison to the previous reagents, still limits the tolerance of this reagent to functional groups [21]. these compounds were stable, safer, milder and less expensive N to produce. Furthermore, some of these compounds proved The development of crystalline, benchtop-stable fluorinating to be as reactive as established reagents in some cases, which reagents such as -fluorobis (phenyl) sulfonimide (NFSI) were also capable of a degree of selectivity that was previously [19] and related analogues [22,23], N-fluoropyridinium salts unattainable [26]. Efforts by Umemoto et al. led to the first [24], and 1-chloromethyl-4-fluoro-1,4-diazoniabicyclo-[2.2.2] isolatable N-fluoropyridinium salts, which had good activity and octane bis(tetrafluoroborate) (Selectfluor, F-TEDABF4) [25] F were amenable to commercial production [27] (Figure 1).
