Abstract: Isolation of triterpenoid compound from ethyl acetate fraction of miana plant leaves
(Plectranthus scutellariodes (L.) R. Br.) was carried out using normal phase gravity column
chromatography by gradient polarity with hexane:ethyl acetate (10:0-0:10) and ethyl acetate:methanol
(10:0-0:10) solvents. Isolation of 52 gram ethyl acetate fraction was obtained 16 fraction (F A-FP). Fraction
5 (FE) showed a positive of triterpenoid compound with Liebermann Burchard (LB) reagent, further
isolation with the same procedure and obtained Sub-fraction in the form of solid. Purification of Sub-
fraction was carried out by trituration method and obtained pure triterpenoid compound in the form of
white solid with melting point 129-130oC. Characterization of structure isolated compound using UV
(Ultraviolet) spectrum and FT-IR spectrum (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectrum has known, structure
skeleton triterpenoid isolated compound that was not conjugated double bond and has O-H, C=O
functional group and presence of dimethyl geminal substituent. Antibacterial activity test result of
isolated compound by diffusion method showed moderate activity against, Staphylococcus aureus and
Escherichia coli bacteria with inhibition zone of 16,36% and 8,88% compared with amoxicillin at the same
concentration.
