Graveoline, an antimicrobial activ alkaloid from Ruta angustifolia (L.) Pers. and its in vitro antimicrobial combination effects with either erythromycin or vancomycin
Ruta angustifolia (L.) Pers. is a Rutaceous species which contains various anthranilic acid derived alkaloids including the bioactive quinolones. This study is aimed at identifying the antimicrobial active natural quinolones of R. angustifolia and evaluating their potential as synergistic enhancers...

Ruta angustifolia (L.) Pers. is a Rutaceous species which contains various anthranilic acid derived alkaloids including the bioactive quinolones. This study is aimed at identifying the antimicrobial active natural quinolones of R. angustifolia and evaluating their potential as synergistic enhancers in alkaloid-antibiotic combinations. Antimicrobial bioautography-guided isolation of alkaloidal fractions of R. angustifolia leaves has led to the identification of 1-methyl-2-[3’,4’-methylenedioxyphenyl]-4-quinolone [graveoline], (III) as the major antimicrobial active alkaloid together with 2,3-dimethoxy-1-hydroxy-10-methylacridone [arborinine], (I) and 4,7,8-trimethoxyfuro [2,3-b]quinoline [skimmianine], (II).
