GALLIC ACID DERIVATIVE AND PROCESS OF PREPARING THE SAME

摘要

This invention provides a plant growth regulatory activity of a new biologically active synthetic molecule Methanone- (3', 4', 5'-trimethoxy) phenyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-O-4"-ethyl but-2"-enoate. More particularly, the invention relates to the potent plant growth promoting activity of a gallic acid derivative having the structural formulae (1) and molecular formulae C26H26O7. This invention also provides a novel process for preparation of a said molecule from a naturally occurring compound and testing it for growth regulating activity using Bacopa test system developed at CIMAP (Khanuja et al 2001).
