  • Phytochemistry of cimicifugic acids and associated bases in Cimicifuga racemosa root extracts.

    Gödecke T, Nikolic D, Lankin DC, Chen SN, Powell SL, Dietz B, Bolton JL, van Breemen RB, Farnsworth NR, Pauli GF. Phytochem Anal. 2009 Mar-Apr; 20 (2): 120-33

    Earlier studies reported serotonergic activity for cimicifugic acids (CA) isolated from Cimicifuga racemosa. The discovery of strongly basic alkaloids, cimipronidines, from the active extract partition and evaluation of previously employed work-up procedures has led to the hypothesis of strong acid/base association in the extract.
