Abstract
Andrographis paniculata is an important medicinal plant of
Acanthaceae family and has widely known for its pharmacological
applications in Homeopathic, Ayurvedic, Chinese, Unani and traditional
systems of medicines. The plant is commercially grown throughout the
world such as India, Pakistan, Shri Lanka, China, South Asia and South
Africa due to its high demand in industries for medicinal purposes.
Terpenoids and flavonoids are the main phytoconstituents of the plant found
mainly in leaves and roots parts. Plant is well known for its vast
pharmacological properties such as anti-malarial, immune stimulatory, anti-
diarrheal, anti-thrombotic, anti-diabetic, anti-pyretic, anti-hyperlipidemic,
anti-venom, antiprotozoal, anti-viral, anti-oxidant, cardio-protective, gastro-
protective, analgesic, anti-cancer, anti-fungal, anti-HIV, anti-diarrheal, and
anti-hypertensive activities. The main objective of present chapter is to sum
up its pharmacological potential, traditional knowledge and clinical studies
of plant.

1. Introduction
Medicinal plants and plant derived drugs are the alternative medicine
and extensively used for centuries to cure various ailments. Around the
world about 80,000 plant species have been identified and used as medicinal
plant [1]. In modern times plants play significant role and belief is that they
have vast potential for treatment of diseases and they are supposed to be safe
in use, effective, and simple with no or lesser side effects. Andrographis
paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees is a multipurpose medicinal plant belonging to
family Acanthaceae [2]. The whole parts of plant are bitter in taste and due to
its bitterness property, it is commonly known as “King of Bitter”. The other
vernacular names of the plant include Kalmegh, Kirayat, Bhui neem,
Page | 43
Chirata, Mahatikta, Hempedu Bumi, Vubati, Chiorta, Nilavembu, etc. In
tropical Asian countries the genus Andrographis contains 28 species [3]
whereas in India it contains 21 species in which Andrographis paniculata
was one of them [4]. It has been reported that the plant is grown in different
habitats e.g. dry and wet lands, plains, slopes, waste lands, sea shores, and
hill slopes [5]. It is a kharif crop cultivated in the rainy phase of summer
season. The crop is commercially cultivated in all types of soil having fair
amount of organic matter [2] and having high demand in terms of
pharmaceutical industries, nutritional values, food supplements, food
preservatives and it also promotes growth and health of livestock. It has been
reported that the plant is beneficial for removal of toxins from the body,
lowering body temperature, prevent respiratory infections and also act as
antidote against poison [6]. Traditionally in Asian countries the plant is used
as immune booster to treat fever, herpes, sore throat, and infections in
gastrointestinal and respiratory tract as reported by Wangboonskul et al. [7]
In Asia and Europe the whole plant, leaves and roots were used for folklore
remedy [8]. The WHO has noticed that the herb Andrographis paniculata is
widely used in Asia for cure of fever, herpes, diarrhea, inflammation,
respiratory infection, throat sour, and various other infections [9]. According
to Unani system of medicine, the plant is regarded as emollient, aperient,
anti-inflammatory, astringent, carminative, diuretic, gastric and liver tonic,
anthelmintic [10]. Flowering of plant begins with the onset of monsoon; plant
grows with moderate temperature after the end of monsoon. During
flowering andrographolide the active compound is highly accumulated in
leaves. During monsoon season the crop yields 3.5 to 4 tones/ha of dried
plant. It has been reported that highest concentration of andrographolide was
found in the sample harvested after 110 days of cultivation followed by that
just before flowering stage (130 days) [11]. Highest yield of diterpenoid
lactones was obtained in the plant at 110-120 days old just before the
blooming season [12, 2]. It has been reported that Andrographis contributes
several species such as A. paniculata, A. beddomei, A. elongata, A.
echioides, A. affinis, A. alata, A. glandulosa, A. lineata, A. ovata and A.
serpyllifolia among these species only few having medicinal values used
extensively in Naturopathy, Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Amchi, Modern, Unani
and Siddha medicine systems [13].

terminal and axillaries with small bract and short pedicle. The flowers
having 5 sepals, corolla tubes are narrow white with yellow top, about 6 mm
long, stamens 2, ovary superior with style exerted. Seed are yellowish brown
in color, shape is sub quadrate, numerous and capsule of the herb is linear-
oblong, acute at both ends, size is 1.9cm × 0.3cm erect, 1-2 cm long and
seeds are very small. Flowering and fruiting period of the plant is December
to April [17]. The total chromosome number in A. paniculata is 25 in
gametophytic and 50 in sporophyte count [18] (Fig1) represents A. paniculata.
5. Phytoconstituents
Several secondary metabolites are present in Andrographis paniculata
such as terpenoids, flavonoids, steroids, alkaloids, tannins, cardiac glycoside,
phenol and saponin compounds which exhibits broad range of
pharmacological properties. Duke [19] reported presence of alkaloids,
flavonoids, tannins, and phenolic compounds in A. paniculata. Chen and
Jiang [20] reported presence of flavones, lactones and andrographolide in
aqueous extract of A. paniculata. Andrographolide is a major labdane
diterpenoid constituents of A. paniculata and isolated first time by Gorter [21]
in its pure form and characterize by x-ray crystallographic method. It has
been reported that andrographolide has a-alkylidene and y-butyrolactone,
two olefin bonds at C-8 and C-12 and three -OH at C-3, C-19 and C-14 [22].
Andrographolide is trihydroxy lactone has the molecular formula of
C20H30O5 exhibits anti-inflammatory activity [23]. The melting point of
andrographolide is 228-230 oC and the ultraviolet spectrum λ max in ethanol
is 223 nm. Fujita et al. [24] isolated neoandrographolide, andrographolide, 14-
deoxyandrographolide and three diterpenoids which were andropanoside,
andrograpanin, 14-deoxy-12-methoxyandrographolide. The plant contains
12-deoxyandrographolide, neoandrographolide, and andrographanin
andrographinnes A, B, C, D & E [25]. Thin layer chromatography and column
Page | 46
chromatography was used to isolate four xanthones (3, 7, 8-trimethoxy-1-
hydroxy-xanthone 1, 8-dihydroxy-3, 7-dimethoxy-xanthone, 1,2-dihydroxy-
6,8-dimethoxyxanthone and 4,8-dihydroxy-2,7-dimethoxy-xanthone) from
the root part of the plant and were characterized by mass and nuclear
magnetic resonance spectroscopic methods and infrared radiation [26].
Different solvents were used for extraction of bioactive compound such as
hexane, acetone, acetone-water, methanol, ethanol, chloroform and
dichloromethane from the aerial parts, whole plant, stems, leaves and roots.
The compound andrographolide was found soluble in ethanol, methanol,
acetic acid, pyridine, but slightly dissolved in ether and water. The plant
contains more than 55 Ent-labdane diterpenoids, 8 quinic acids, 30
flavonoids, 4 xanthones and 5 noriridoids namely andrographidoids A, B, C,
D, and E [27]. It has been reported that nearby 20 diterpenoids and 10
flavonoids have been reported from A. paniculata [28]. Studies suggested that
in leaves andrographolide is present in high quantity where as in seeds it was
found in low quantity [29]. The plant contains 4% of andrographolide
(C20H30O5) the major diterpenoid and its concentration in crude extract was
found 0.8-1.2% and 0.5-6% [30]. Observation showed that the highest yield of
diterpenoid lactones was obtained just before the blooming season or when
the plant is 110-120 days old [2, 29]. A. paniculata contains glucosides;
neoandrographolide, panaculoside, andrographolide, andrographonin,
flavonoids, apigenin 7-4-dimethyl ether, panicalin, diterpenoids; 14-deoxy-
11-oxo-andrographolide, 14-deoxyandrographolide, 14-deoxy-11, 12-
didehydroandrograholide. The aerial parts of the plant contains several
chemical compounds of medicinal importance viz. 5-hydroxy-7,8-
dimethoxyflavone, β-sitosterol, glucoside, carcrol, myristic acids,
chlorogenic, andrographolide, panicolide, eugenol, 5-hydroxy-7,8-
dimethoxyflavone,5-hydroxy-3,7,8, 2’-tetramethoxy flavone, hentriacontane,
dicaffeoylquinic acids, 7-o-methylwogonin, apigenin-7,4’-di-omethylether,
tritriacontane, andrographiside, 3-14-dideoxyandrographolide, β19 oxide, β-
hydroxy-8(17), 12-labadien-16, 15-olide-3 [31]. The five nori iridoids viz.
andrographolide A-E along with curvifloruside was isolated from the roots
of the plant [32]. It has been reported that the compound neoandrographolide
showed anti-hepatotoxic and anti-inflammatory properties. 14-deoxy-11, 12-
didehydroandrographo-lide and 14-deoxyandrographolide possess anti-
hepatotoxic, immune stimulatory and anti-atherosclerotic activity. Two
flavonoid compounds were isolated from the whole part of the plant 5, 7, 2’,
3’-tetramethoxyflavanone and 5-hydroxy-7, 2’, 3’-trimethoxyflavone and
these active molecules of the plant exhibit various therapeutic property like
anti-inflammatory, anti-cancerous, immune modulator, anti-hepatotoxic,

7. Pharmacological significance
Andrographis paniculata is well known for its pharmacological and
biological activities. The leaves and roots of A. paniculata are generally used
for medicinal purpose for the treatment of dysentery, convalescence after
fever and gaseous distention [40, 41]. Tannins are biologically active against
Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella paratyphi, E. coli, and Candida albicans
[42]
. Flavonoids are known as nature biological response modifier because it
modifies the body reaction to virus and allergies and showed their anti-
inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-allergic and anti-cancer activities43. It has
been reported that to treat diseases like malaria, pain killers and managing
heart diseases alkaloids are being used [44]. Glycosides are the non-volatile
compound and lack fragrance, cleavage of glycosidic bond yields aglycone
which is volatile and fragrant. It has been reported that glycosides are used in
plant protection against insects, microorganisms and herbivores [45]. Steroids
are the important compounds used as herbal medicines, nutrition and
cosmetics. Plant steroids are important for their microbial activities. In
pharmacy steroids are important due to their role in sex hormones [46].
Saponin is mild detergent used to stain intracellular histochemical and also
used to allow antibody access in intracellular proteins. Antioxidant activity
Page | 50
of the plant is due to the presence of phenols which are low molecular
weight secondary metabolites which comprises a largest group of phyto
compounds [47]. The microbial growth should be inhibited at a low tannin
concentration that acts as antifungal agent but at high concentration it
coagulates protoplasm of microorganism [48]. Among the phytoconstituents,
phenols showed anti-oxidant activity whereas flavonoids showed anti-
allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-cancer activities [49].
Table 1 represents the phytocompounds of A. paniculata and their
pharmacological properties.
Table 1: Phytoconstituents and pharmacological application of A. paniculata

andrographolide showed antibacterial activity against both gram negative
and gram-positive microorganism [51]. The ethanol extract of A. paniculata
showed inhibitory activity against gram positive and gram-negative bacteria
[52]
. It has been studied that the ethanolic extract and andrographolide
compound showed neither bacteriostatic nor bactericidal action against
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli,
Shigella sonnei, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae,
Streptococcus pyogenes, Legionella pneumophila but it exhibited
bacteriostatic activity against Legionella pneumophila and Bordetella
pertussis [53]. The extracts of A. paniculata showed antibacterial activity at
different concentration i.e. 1000, 500, 250μg/disc against skin disease [54].
The ethanol leaf extract exhibits antibacterial activity against Escherichia
coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris and Streptococcus pneumonia
by using disc diffusion method [55]. Leaves and stems of A. paniculata
extract isolated in petroleum ether, acetone, and chloroform and showed
antimicrobial potential against Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus
pyogenes, Klebsiella pneumonia and Proteus vulgarism [56]. The aqueous leaf
extracts of A. paniculata possess antibacterial activity against gram positive
bacteria i.e. Bacillus subtilis and Streptococcus aureus [57]. It has been
investigated that the plant A. paniculata serves as an antimicrobial agent
against pathogenic microorganism [58, 59, 60, 61].
7.2 Anti-malarial activity
Malaria is an endemic disease caused by Plasmodium a protozoon and
widespread in tropical and sub-tropical countries affecting a large number of
populations. Najib et al. [62] found that within 24 hours the growth of malaria
parasite was reduced with 0.05mg/ml of chloroform extract of Andrographis
paniculata whereas 2.5mg/ml of methanolic extract was used to inhibit the
growth at 48 hours. It has been reported that 1-8-dihydroxy-3,7-
dimethoxyxanthone,1,2,-dihydroxy-6,8-dimethoxyxanthone,4,8-dihydroxy-
2,7-dimethoxy-xanthone and 3,7,8-trimethoxy-1-hydroxy-xanthon present in
roots of Andrographis paniculata showed anti-malarial activity against
Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium berghei [63]. Nowadays,
Plasmodium falciparum acquires resistance against some of the commonly
used anti-malarial drugs like mefloquine, chloroquine, mepacrine,
primaquine, sulphadoxine, pyrimethamine [64]. Dua et al. [65] studied that
(4μg) of 1, 2-dihydroxy-6,8-dimethoxy-xanthane obtained from A.
paniculata showed anti-plasmodial activity against P. falciparum. The
methanolic extract of A. paniculata was used to reduce the multiplication of
P. falciparum [66]. The anti-malarial activity was observed against
Page | 52
Plasmodium berghei and P. falciparum due to the presence of antioxidant
enzyme in the former and xanthones in the latter having potential for
reactivation of superoxide dismutase in A. paniculata [67]. Goel et al. [68] have
examined antiprotozoal activity against Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma
cruzi and Leishmania infantum from xanthones extracted from the roots of A.
paniculata and did not found any promising effect up to pharmacological
significance. It has been reported that andrographolide and 5-hydroxy-7, 8-
dimethoxy flavones showed antimalarial activity against Plasmodium
berghei and demonstrated that andrographolide (53.9±3.1%) showed better
inhibition than 5-hydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxy flavones (15.4±2.9%) [69]. Due to
reactivation of one of the key antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase, it
has been reported that P. berghei the causative agent of malaria was
inhibited by A. paniculata extract [70]. Studies suggested that A. paniculata
showed antimalarial activity against P. falciparum [71]. A. paniculata along
with Goniothalamus scortechinii and Aralidium pinnatifidum showed anti-
malarial activity against P. falciparum as evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase
assay whereas all the extracts exhibited the growth inhibitory action against
malaria parasite [72]. Xanthones isolated from the roots of A. paniculata
showed anti-malarial activity [73] and antiprotozoal activity against T. brucei,
T. cruzi and Leishmania infantum [74].
7.3 Antioxidant activity
Free radicals are harmful for cells as they disturb the major metabolic
pathways and damage cells and tissues. Antioxidant property of plant is
attributed by high content of flavonoid and phenol. Andrographolide reduces
the neutrophil count in rat by inducing the ROS production [23]. The aqueous,
methanolic and ethanolic extract of Andrographis paniculata was reported as
having antioxidant property [75]. The hydroxyl radical scavenging activity is
more effective in the leaf extract of A. paniculata [76]. It has been reported
that the aqueous extract of A. paniculata enhance the activities of catalase,
superoxide dismutase and glutathione S-transferase enzymes and reduces
lactate dehydrogenase enzyme activity [77]. A. paniculata extract act as
antioxidant and are able to remove free radicals and prevent cell damages
and stress responsible for many degenerative disorders [78]. The antioxidant
activity in A. paniculata was found effective in reactivation of enzyme
superoxide dismutase and its activity was examined by DPPH radical
scavenging assay and confirmed by total reducing capacity [79].

7.4 Anti-inflammatory activity
In folk medicine Andrographis paniculata bioactive components e.g.
andrographolide, neoandrographolide, deoxyandrographolide were used
reduce inflammation. Andrographolide prevents the production of oxygen
radical by human neutrophils and inhibits COX-2 expression in human
fibroblast cells [80]. The andrographolide and its derivatives showed anti-
inflammatory effects against dimethylbenzene-induced ear edema due to
inhibition of NO and PGE2 production in mice [81]. The active components
of A. paniculata e.g. andrographolide, neoandrographolide, deoxy-
andrographolide were used for lowering inflammation in folk medicine [82].
Andrographolide have anti-inflammatory activity, it inhibits the neutrophil
adhesion or transmigration reaction through suppression of Mac-1 up
regulation [83]. In mice the crude extract of plant and andrographolide can
induce cell differentiation in myeloid leukemia cell [84]. The compound
andrographolide possess an anti-inflammatory activity and it induces the
expression of nitric oxide synthesis by inhibiting the protein synthesis
activity [85]. It has been reported that in rats the chloroform extract of A.
paniculata stem showed anti-inflammatory activity in hind paw oedemic
model for acute inflammation [86]. Concentration dependent anti-
inflammatory activity was recorded for diterpene lactones,
neoandrographolide the isolated compounds from the methanol extract of A.
paniculata [87]. It has been reported that in vitro and in vivo anti-
inflammatory effects of andrographolide, where the release of inflammatory
cytokines was inhibited by andrographolide [88]. Andrographolide is used as
an alternative medicine in the treatment of autoimmune disease as it exhibits
anti-inflammatory effects [89]. Neoandrographolide showed in vivo and in
vitro anti-inflammatory activities where administration of dimethyl benzene
in mice showed significant reduction of ear edema [90].
7.5 Anti-cancer activity
Cancer is also treated by herbal medicinal plants. The cell growth is
inhibited by andrographolide and the EGFR (epidermal growth factor
receptor) and TfR (transferring receptor) are also affected by
andrographolide. Andrographolide possess anticancer activity [91]. IL-6
played a key role in inflammatory response which results in activation of
androgen receptor, growth and differentiation of cell and development of
prostate cancer. The diterpene lactone, andrographolide isolated from
Andrographis paniculata is used to inhibit expression of IL-6 and
suppression of signals mediated by IL-6 [92]. The andrographolide increases
the expression of CYP1A1 mRNA [93].

7.6 Hypoglycemic activity
It has been reported that in rabbits the aqueous extract of Andrographis
paniculata is helpful in lowering hyperglycemia after glucose administration
in which the absorption of glucose was inhibited by A. paniculata [94].
Investigation showed that the aqueous extract of A. paniculata was effective
in lowering hyperglycemia in rats [95]. The aqueous extract of A. paniculata
showed antidiabetic activity [94, 96]. The ethanol leaf extract having capacity
to lower hyperglycemia along with oxidative stress and also concluded that
andrographolide is active compound to lower down sugar level [96]. It has
been also investigated that the diabetes mellitus induced by streptozotocin
gets lowered by the oral intake of A. paniculata [97]. Wibudi et al. [98] have
also confirmed antidiabetic property of the plant.
7.7 Anti-HIV activity
The anti-HIV activity was found in crude extract of Andrographis
paniculata in H9 cell line [99]. It has been reported that anti-HIV activity is
exhibited by seven compounds isolated from methanol and hexane extract of
A. paniculata i.e. andrographolide, andrograpanin, bis-andrographolide, 14-
deoxy-11, 12-didehydro-andrographolide, 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxy-
flavone,5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavonone,14-deoxyandrographolide [100].
In a clinical trial it has been investigated that in 13 HIV patients the cell
cycle regulation in HIV1 infected individuals was inhibited by
andrographolide by raising the level of (CD4+) lymphocyte [101].
7.8 Hepatoprotective activity
Andrographolide exhibits hepatoprotective activity. It has been
investigated that the liver damages induced by carbon tetrachloride in rats
and mice were treated by andrographolide extracted from leaf of
Andrographis paniculata and found positive result [102]. Among 26 different
formulations, A. paniculata was one of them used in ayurvedic medicine for
treatment of liver disorders. The hepatoprotective activity was observed in
mice when treated with tert-butyl hydroperoxide or carbon tetra chloride103.
The diterpenoids and andrographolide showed efficient choleretic potential
for treating liver disorders in rats such as hepatitis and also damages induced
by carbon tetrachloride, galactosamine and paracetamol [102, 104].
7.9 Anti-pyretic activity
In folk medicine Andrographis paniculata is used for lowering body
temperature in many Asian countries. The aqueous extract of A. paniculata
was used for reducing the body temperature and elongation of
Page | 55
pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time [105]. It has been reported that ethanol
extract of A. paniculata (2.5gm) showed antipyretic effects on rabbits which
was as effective as (300mg/kg) aspirin [106]. In China, it has been investigated
that the active ingredients such as andrographolide, dehydroandrographolide,
neo-andrographolide are useful to lower the body temperature in rats by
inhibiting the activity of fever inducing agents like hemolytic Streptococcus,
Pneumococcus, and 2,4 dinitrophenol [107].
7.10 Cardiovascular activity
The plant is widely recommended in cardiovascular therapy in many
parts of world. The extract of Andrographis paniculata was used for
dissolving blood clots by promoting the activation of fibrinolysis [107]. The
cardiovascular activity was studied in anaesthetized rats in which the arterial
pressure and heart rate was reduced by 14-deoxyandrographolide and 14-
deoxy-11, 12-didehydroandrographolide [108]. The crude extract of A.
paniculata was used for lowering the risk of damage to the heart muscle
after myocardial infarction in rabbits in which the nitric oxide label is
maintained by the plant and found effective in protecting endothelial
functions [109]. Observation showed that in human the platelet activating
factor (PAF) and eicosanoids are the main inflammatory mediators and the
platelet activating factor is inhibited by andrographolide [110]. The clinical
studies on rats showed anti-hyperglycemic effect of andrographolide in
streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats [111].
7.11 Psycho-pharmacological activity
The clinical and pharmacological study demonstrated that the aqueous
extract of Andrographis paniculata act as depressant in central nervous
system and showed motor in-coordination and muscle relaxant activity [112].
It has been reported that the plant extract of A. paniculata showed positive
impact for protection of neurodegeneration [113].
7.12 Upper respiratory infections
Several authors have reported positive response of extract of
Andrographis paniculata in upper respiratory tract infections [114, 115]. In
China, it has been observed that the oral administration of andrographolide
showed effective results against respiratory infection. During common cold
A. paniculata reduces the body temperature along with respiratory tract
infection [116].
7.13 Anti-venom activity
Andrographis paniculata possess anti-venom activities and have been
also reported from different parts of the world. It has been reported that 10
Page | 56
patients of viper bite were cured by taking the formulations of A. paniculata
[117]
. The methanol extract of A. paniculata showed potent venom reducing
activity of Daboia russelli [118]. The tribal peoples of Raigarh district of
Chhattisgarh are using the plant extract for the treatment of snake bite [119]. It
has been studied that at dose quantity of 2g/kg bw A. paniculata showed
anti-venom activity against Cobra snake [120]. The crude extract of A.
paniculata at the dose quantity of 1g/kg bw possess anti-scorpion venom
activity [121].
7.14 Effects on reproductive system
It has been reported that in pregnant mice abortion is induced by
administration of Andrographis paniculata in addition, it was also found that
in humans the placental chorionic trophoblastic cells were suppressed by the
activity of this herb [122]. Clinical studies on pregnant female mice showed
failure when treated with A. paniculata mixed food during mating period
with normal male mice [123]. In male albino mice spermatogenesis was
inhibited by dried leaf powder of A. paniculata and andrographolide and
several changes were observed in seminiferous tubules, epididymis, seminal
vesicle, leydig cells, and ventral prostate and coagulating glands have been
reported degenerative in nature. Thus it was confirmed that the compound
andrographolide can act as male contraceptive [124]. A. paniculata showed
antifertility as well as pregnancy terminating activity [125].
7.15 Contradictions
The plant was classified as class2b “herb not to be taken during
pregnancy” according to botanical safety handbook [126]. The extract of
Andrographis paniculata in higher quantity causes adverse health problems
like headache, gastric discomfort vomiting anaphylactic effects and by
reducing the blood clotting activity, platelet aggregation it induces severe
bleeding and bruising activity [127]. Andrographolide causes loss of appetite,
gastric problems, and nausea on overdosing of crude extract [128].
8. Conclusion
Andrographis paniculata is a wonder plant with wide range of
pharmacological properties. The plant is well known for its ethnomedicinal
claims and used for treatment of various diseases such as liver toxicity,
cardiovascular disease abdominal problems, central nervous system, snake
bites, cancer, HIV, respiratory infection, viral infection, fever, diarrhea,
common cold, bacterial infections etc. The plant is not toxic but overdosing
may cause critical health problems. Besides its wider pharmaceutical uses
the drug is recommended unsafe during pregnancy. As A. paniculata is used

for medicinal purpose for long time in acute and chronic diseases, it should
be therapeutically safe for clinical purpose. So on the basis of present text it
is essential to find out other entire group of phytocompounds and to evaluate
their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for wider application.

India Faces Pandemic Covid-19 Disrupts of
Teaching and Challenges of Poor Students
Dr. Devashish Haldar
1. INTRODUCTION
The pandemic has significantly disrupted the higher education sector as well,
which is a critical determinant of a countries economic future. Sometime in
second week of March, state governments across the country began shutting
down school and colleges temporally as a measure to contain the spread of the
novel corona virus. It’s close to a month and there is no certainty when they
reopen. This is crucial time for the education sector- board examinations,
nursery school admissions, entrance test of various universities and competitive
examinations, among others, are all held during this period. After this days
passed by with no immediate solution to stop the outbreak of covid-19, school
and university closures will not only have a short- term impact on the
continuity of learning for more than 285 million young learners in India. This
paper will highlight the challenges which poor students facing India in general
Chhattisgarh.
Transformation is a part of life. Perhaps it is the best and last opportunity for
the teachers to educate the society virtually. Opportunity does not come every
day. Now it is the right time to fight for education for all through virtual
classroom. Virtual-environment plays a fundamental role in education. It is
very difficult and challengeable to teach and learn literature through virtual
classroom. Literature requires vast explanation and critical appreciations which
is impossible through the online mode. Language learners need practice for
learning skills. Still the well sophisticated digital tool and techniques are not
developed for literary studies. This virtual learning is more successful
developed countries. Teaching literature and language online is an important
concern, in the virtual world. Through e-learning teachers can’t understand the
exact method and approach to adopt for their students. It is very difficult and
challengeable to teach and learn literature and language through virtual
classroom. The virtual classroom is not possible in places like Chhattisgarh,

India Faces Pandemic Covid-19 Disrupts of Teaching and Challenges of Poor Students
The effects of corona virus in the life of students, parents and teachers.
Bringing the covid-19 pandemic has sparked a global realization that our
current way of life does not work. It has broken hour perception or what is
normal deconstructed society as we know it. So, what could the current effects
of this global pandemic mean for the future of education system. Some factors
affecting the evolution of the education system are as follows:-
37
Emerging Challenges in Teaching Literature and Language in the Virtual World
this paper reflect how to collaborative classrooms help further and discover
resources to help learners to through e-learning.
The language problem had become a major issue in India’s progress in the field
of school and colleges. Apart from problems of language pedagogy generally
used in Indian school and colleges, such teachers are rather thin on the ground.
Most teachers teaching English can do little more than read from a text book.
According to study, a very large proportion of teachers were not confident
teaching in English. India follows the three-language formula, where children
are to be taught in Hindi, English and Regional language, with school having
the freedom to decide the sequence in which these languages are taught, as well
as the medium of teaching. As we know, Hindi is common official language in
India. So, every state follows their regional or Hindi and English languages in
education system. Parents, even in rural areas, know about the huge Hindi or
Regional languages. Those parents are financially well who has given
opportunities to their children study in private schools. Online/virtual classes
available material and language in process by 70-80% so the problem faces
village poor students because they are Hindi medium preferably. Almost 60-
70% students in rural area, who read learn in Hindi medium, because of their
low income or poor financial condition. So, in this case majority of
Hindi/Regional language medium students raised all over India, after that they
cannot give important to learning in English languages. The case of our online
learning in Hindi or Regional languages will not better develop for online
courses. English language at the advance level of online learning or read and
practicing. So, we can tell that English is a global language. People often talk
about English a global language. With more than 350 million people around
the world speaking English as the first language.
3.1 Lack of Smart Phone, Poor Connectivity a Challenge for Teachers and
Students Online Learning
Teachers are facing several challenges in the online mode of learning and
teaching. The online platform may be the only way to reach students during
lockdown, but digital medium comes with its own challenges. Most of the
students and teachers living in remote areas are facing trouble due to slow
internet connectivity. In higher institution like IIT have found that about 10%
of their students are not equipped to assess online classroom instruction from
home. A survey by IIT-Kanpur revealed that 9.3% of its 2789 students, who
38
India Faces Pandemic Covid-19 Disrupts of Teaching and Challenges of Poor Students
responded to the survey, cannot download any material sent by the institute or
study online. Every day, the classes are being conducted via Zoom, Google
meet, whatsapp and many other app, for 2 to 3 hours, but a communication gap
affects understanding. The videos get paused in the live feed due to server
issues so he/she missed their live session. Not to clear their doubts.
During this lockdown the situation is worse for these from remote non-urban
areas. Highlighting India’s poverty and digital device, poor connectivity and
lack of smart gadget is providing a hassle for many students. The students who
are coming mostly from families of fishermen, farmers, fruit sellers, street
venders and home servants. Many students don’t have smartphone or laptops to
attend online classes or get work on whatsapp because of their financial
problem, they how to be afford this expensive expenditure. In lockdown period
it’s to be more tuff for their service. So low income families students does not
fulfill their minimum daily needs. So how could they purchase smart phone
and internet connection? Covid-19 has created a challenge for rural areas
students. The question is how those people who are not economically well of
assess the resources what happens to education to education. But today’s
reality is different. A large part of India is not used on social media and a very
high percentage is not too connected on the mobile. Most of the platforms used

Abstract
The salen and related ligands are very popular among the inorganic chemists due
to multiple reasons such as ease in synthesis, coordinating ability with very long
range of metal ions, facilitating the metal ions to adopt various geometries, ability
of stabilising the metal ion in variable oxidation states and potential applications of
metallosalen in several fields. The most common application of metallosalen is in
the field of catalysis because of their recoverability, reusability, high efficiency, high
selectivity and their capability of working as homogeneous as well as heterogeneous
catalysts for numerous functional group manipulations including asymmetric
synthesis. Molecular magnetism, sensory applications, bioinorganic activities
and medicinal applications of metallosalen are also very promising areas of their
applications. Porous materials involving metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and
supramolecular building blocks are increasingly getting attention of researchers for
the gas absorption and heterogeneous catalysis.
1. Introduction
The coupling of aldehyde group with primary amine yields imine bond which is
called Schiff ’s base. Salen ligand system, one of the most studied classes of chelate
ligands, is also a Schiff ’s base ligand. The earliest report of salen-metal complexes
is probably by Pfeiffer et al. in the year 1933 [1]. The word ‘salen’ is composed of
two abbreviations, sal+en; ‘sal’ stands for salicylaldehyde and ‘en’ stands for ethyl-
enediamine. When two equivalents of salicylaldehyde reacts with one equivalent
of ethylenediamine potential tetradentate chelating ligand known as ‘salen’ is
produced (Figure 1).
Usually, these reactions do not need any catalyst and proceed straightforwardly
but sometimes the products may be hydrolysed in reversible manner. To overcome
this problem, dehydrating agents or molecular sieves (3 Å) are used so that the
water molecules produced during the reaction can be absorbed. Dean Stark appara-
tus is also used for the removal of water molecules when water-immiscible solvent
(e.g., toluene or benzene) is used. Sometimes template synthesis is also performed
to get metal-salen complexes directly in which process first metal-salicylaldehyde
complex is prepared in-situ as template then ethylenediamine is added to get
salen ligand. Although, the salen ligands are sensitive towards hydrolysis which
is catalysed by acid, their metal complexes are quite stable and thus to avoid the
hydrolysis of salen ligands during the applications, their metal-complexes are often
used. Metal salen can work even in aqueous medium. Moreover, the salen ligands
have potential to stabilise metal ions in various oxidation states, making them good
candidates as catalysts.

Stability and Applications of Coordination Compounds
Figure 1.
Synthesis of salen ligand.
Salen ligand possess N2O2 donor sites which offers metal ions to adopt various
geometries such as square planar, tetrahedral, square pyramidal and octahedral as
well, with additional ligand(s) if required. A large number of metal ions have been
introduced to salen to produce variety of complexes [2–4]. A very broad range of
transition metals, main group metals and inner transition metals have been coor-
dinated with salen ligand systems. Being the multidentate ligand, their complexes
often have very high formation constants. Salen based complexes have potentially
been used in several fields like catalysis, biochemistry, electrochemistry, sensors,
molecular magnetism and materials science. Salen-metal complexes are still leading
in the field of homogeneous catalysis for various organic reactions. In the past few
decades, numerous reviews based on salen ligand system have been published,
highlighting its importance [5–8].
Several manipulations have been done on parent salen system to develop the
varieties of salen system for various applications. The derivatives of salen are
designed to develop desirable properties like solubility, stability, chirality, catalysis,
extended conjugation, etc. Aromatic ring and diamine linkage (e.g., ethylene link)
are two main portions in salen ligand system, which are used to put various sub-
stituents. 3-,5-Positions of salicylideneimine are frequently used for substitution.
Substitution at 3- and 5-positions of salicylideneimine also improves the catalytic
activities and prevents dimerization as well. The numbering of positions in salen
system is shown in Figure 2. Substitution at aromatic ring of salicylaldehyde is very
popular to enhance solubility of salen ligand and its metal complexes while the
substitution at diamine linkage is commonly used to get the chiral ligand. Another
position available for the substitution is carbon atom of imine bond.

ligands using diamine having one or more stereocentres [9, 10], or a stereoaxis [11],
through the incorporation of axial [12] or planar [13–15] chirality within the sali-
cylaldehyde. Trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and 1,2-diphenylethylene-1,2-diamine
are often used as 1,2-diamine to produce the chiral salen. These two chiral salen (2
and 3) are very popular and their several derivatives have been reported [16]. Very
often, tertiary butyl group and long alkyl chain are put to modify solubility, steric
factor and electronic factor.
Chiral binaphthyl salen complexes (4 and 5) have been designed in such a way
that the complexes possess two stereogenic centres and thus considered as second
generation metal salen complexes. One of the stereogenic centres belongs to
binaphthyl unit while other belongs to diamine unit [17–19]. The complexes were
used for non-racemic oxidation of prochiral sulphides.

protection of group or presence of special reagent, but the main drawback of this
method is that the stepwise coupling is not much favourable due to the formation
of symmetrical product in first step and lability of imine bonds towards hydrolysis
which reduces the yield of desirable unsymmetrical product drastically. Jacobsen
et al. exhibited another way to prepare nonsymmetrical salen ligand directly by
the reaction of two different salicylaldehyde derivatives and (1R,2R)-(+)-1,2-
diaminocyclohexane L-tartrate in 1:1:1 molar ratio in single spot, but in moderate
yield (Figure 4) [28, 29]. Another approach for the synthesis of non-symmetrical
salen is selective protection of one of the amine groups of diamine compound
followed by Schiff base coupling of another amine group with salicylaldehyde, then
the protected amine group is deprotected and coupled with distinct salicylaldehyde
(Figure 5) [30, 31].
Silica- and polymer-immobilised Co(III)-salen non-symmetrical complexes (6)
have also been developed and successfully used as catalysts for hydrolytic kinetic
resolution of terminal epoxides with better rate, enantioselectivity and recyclability
[32, 33]. Similar Mn(III)-salen non-symmetrical complexes have also been designed
and studied [7]. Rigamonti et al. reported the synthesis of nonsymmetrical salen-
Cu(II) complexes (7–14) by the reaction of salicylaldehyde/5-nitrosalicylaldehyde

of Zn(salphen) which form dimeric structures having a classical Zn2O2 central unit
[59]. Multimetallic salen frameworks have been revealed to act as metallohosts form-
ing adduct complexes with further structural ordering upon substrate binding [38].
Nabeshima et al. employed a linear metallohost containing two N2O2 binding units
[60]. Upon metalation with Zn(II) a 1:3 ligand to metal complex forms via a highly
cooperative process. One Zn(II) ion is situated in a C-shaped O6 site in the centre of
the helical complex. Guest exchange was shown to occur through substitution of the
central Zn(II) with rare earth metal and lanthanide cations. Excitingly, the helicity
of the complex is relying on the size of the central guest cation.
3. Analogues of salen
Due to the extended applications of salen ligand systems, their various ana-
logues have been developed and studied. Chalcogen analogues of salen include sul-
phur and selenium derivatives as thiasalen and selenasalen. However, the sulphur
and selenium analogues are relatively less explored because of the volatile nature,
instability, synthetic complications, unpleasant smell and adverse effect of thiol
and selenol compounds. To synthesise the metal-thiasalen/selenasalen complexes,
template synthesis is often used.
Dutta et al. reported the one pot synthesis of thia/selena analogues of salen-metal
complexes (32–37) via oxidative addition of zero valent group ten metals (Ni(0),
Pd(0) and Pd(0)) to S-S/Se-Se bond of bis(o-formylphenyl)disulphide/−diselenide
followed by in situ coupling with ethylenediamine [61]. Panda et al. reported the
synthesis of bis(alkylseleno)salen ligands (38–41) by the reaction of 2-(alkylthio/
seleno)benzaldehyde and ethylenediamine [62]. Their complexation with Pd(II)
and Pt(II) ions exhibited very interesting results. Complexation of 2-(alkylseleno)
benzaldehyde with Pd(II) and Pt(II) ion yielded the formation of unsymmetrical
complexes with the cleavage of one of the alkyl groups from Se-C(alkyl) bonds.
However, the complexation with Pd(II) ions Complexation of 2-(methylthio)
benzaldehyde with Pt(II) ion, reported by Dutta et al., yielded similar unsymmetri-
cal complex (42–46) while the same with Pd(II) ion yielded time dependent product
[63]. When the reaction mixture was refluxed for 5 min the symmetrical complex
(48) with both the methyl groups intact was obtained, but when it was refluxed for
4 h the unsymmetrical complex (47) was obtained.
Benzene rings have also been replaced by other aromatic rings to design the new
salen analogues. Jeong et al. reported the synthesis of pyridine based salen type chi-
ral ligands (49–50) and their complexes and used them as enantioselective catalysts
in Henry reaction [64]. Asatkar et al. reported the thiophene analogues (51–52)
7
Stability and Applications of Coordination Compounds
of salen ligand system [65]. Interestingly, thiophene analogue of simple salen was
found to exist in different tautomeric forms in solid and solution phases, unlike
salen ligand. Its reaction with Cu(II) ion resulted in the dimeric complex. Another
example of change in aromatic ring is pyrrole based salen type ligand (53), reported
by Berube et al. along with its dimeric samarium(II) complex [66].
M(salen) complexes have unique and exciting class of ligand based complexes
with exceptionally versatile applications ranging from laboratory reaction to
mass scale industries level. Interestingly, metal salen complexes gained popularity
because of their roles in multiple areas few important of them are discussed below:

Metal salen based materials have drawn attraction of material scientists as well
[111]. Metal organic framework (MOF) and zeolite encapsulated salen have porosity
in their bulk material and thus exhibited gas storage properties and thus expected
as gaseous fuel loading materials [6, 112]. Various lanthanide and transition metal-
lanthanide complexes have been found to have excellent luminescence properties
[113]. Yu et al. reported the Zn(II) complex of salen type ligand exhibiting blue
photoluminescence with brightness of around 37.2 cd m−2 [114]. The LED material
also showed excellent thermal stability and thin film coating property. Ni(II), Pd(II)
and Pt(II) complexes of salphen derivatives have also shown LED uses [115, 116].
Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of thiophene analogue of salphen have been reported as
semiconducting material for field-effect transistor with excellent hole mobilities [37].
Thiophene capped salen-metal (V, Ni and Cu) complexes, Pietrangelo et al., where
electrochemically polymerised as thin film to get conducting polymers. The poly-
merised complex materials exhibited enhanced nonlinear optical properties [36].

P-450 mimics [123], vitamin B12 [124, 125]. Metallosalens are capable of induc-
ing specific damage to DNA or RNA and have been recommended as footprinting
agents [126, 127]. Salen complexes are versatile (biomimetic) catalysts for impor-
tant organic transformations. Derivatives of diaryl-substituted amines linked with
metal attached with salen as ligand were experimented in number of cancerous cell
lines [128]. Aromatic ring substitution and structural orientation of salen com-
plexes predict the cytotoxicity. Two labile titanium-salen complexes of cis
configuration were discovered as antitumor agents due to its chelating ability as
found in cis-platin [129, 130].
4.5 Sensors
Metal salen complexes have shown the sensory properties for verities of metal ions
and small molecules [2, 38]. Colorimetric and fluoremetric both types of responses
have been observed depending on the sensor and sensing ions. Chan et al. reported
the Pt(II)-salphen based polymeric sensors for the detection of Pd(II), Cd(II),
Hg(II), Zn(II), Mg(II), Ca(II), Li(I) and K(I) ions [131, 132]. Wezenberg et al.
reported Zn(II)-salphen complexes as metal ion sensors based on demetalation of
complexes [133, 134]. Many multimetallic salen complexes have found to be potential
sensory properties [2]. Song et al. reported chiral salen based fluorescent polymeric
sensor for the enantioselective detection of α-hydroxy carboxylic acids showing
fluorescence quenching upon reaction [135]. The same group reported another chiral
salen based fluorescent polymeric sensor for the detection of Zn(II) ion as turn-on
fluorescence response [136]. Salen based chemosensors for the detection of Al(III)
ion based on transmetalation mechanism have also been reported [137].
