✦ Synopsis

The advantages and potential of droplet counter-current chromatography in the semi-preparative-and preparative-scale isolation of parthenolide and related sesquiterpene lactones was studied. Two systems, benzene-chloroform-methanol-water and chloroform-trichloroethylene-acetonitrile-methanol-water, were found to be suitable for the isolation of sesquiterpene lactones from Asteraceae plants.
