Catalog Number	ACM6159553-1
CAS Number	6159-55-3
Structure
Description	Vasicine is a natural product that is found in the plant Vasicinopsis lanceolata. It is an active ingredient that has been isolated from this plant and is used as a reference chemical for the detection of other natural products. It is an alkaloid that can be extracted from the bark of the tree and purified to produce a white or yellow-white powder with a melting point of 220-230 degrees Celsius. The purity of vasicine can be determined by HPLC, which separates it from other substances that may have been present during extraction. The purity of vasicine can also be determined by GC/MS, which detects secondary metabolites such as glycosides, saponins, terpenes, and tannins.
