General description

Quinine, a cinchona alkaloid found in the bark of the cinchona tree, is known for its anti-malarial property.

Application

Quinine has been used as a standard during the chemical evaluation of alkaloids in the hydroethanolic extracts of endophytic fungi obtained from the leaves of Costus spiralis by TLC.
Resolving agent for carboxylic acids. Catalyzes the kinetic resolution of furanones.
