COMPUTATION 1/10*100= 10
- Tannic acid, which precipitates most alkaloids, as well as some other similar substances, as white or yellowish, flocculent
compounds. They are often soluble in excess of the precipitant or in other acids.
- Picric acid, which from not too dilute solutions precipitates yellow compounds, often crystalline in form.
- Phosphomolybdic acid precipitates the alkaloids and similar nitrogenous compounds in the form of yellowish or brownish-yellow
solids. These can be filtered from the solution and the alkaloid set free from them by the alkalis and. their carbonates.
- Phosphotungstic acid acts like the phosphomolybdic in most cases.
- Mercuric potassium iodide precipitates most alkaloids from solutions of their sulfuric or hydrochloric acid salts as white or yellow
compounds.
- Iodine in potassium iodide forms brown precipitates with alkaloidal solutions.
- Mercuric chloride, platinum chloride, or gold chloride, from not too dilute solutions, throw down white or yellowish precipitates.
With dilute solutions they may only form a turbidity.
5. WHAT IS THE GENERAL PROCEDURE FOR THE EXTRACTION OG ALKALOIDS FROM PLANTS?
o Sample preparation
o Liberation of free alkaloidal base
o Extraction of alkaloidal base with organic solvent
o Purification of crude alkaloidal extract
o Fractionation of crude alkaloids
