The Labiatae family comprises about 3500 plant speciesdistributed over about 180 genera. Among these 180 genera are the plants classified as Plectranthus, Coleus, Anisochilus, Lavandula and Leonitis. About thirty Plectranthus species are found to grow in India, of which P. macranthus, P. mollis, P.-stocksii, P. coetsa, and P. incanus are the more common plants.

The plants grow in different parts o India and are commonly to be found in the subtropical Himalayan region, the ~ecan Pen-insula, Cujarat, Bihar and South India. The plants are also cultivated in several places in India, namely Bombay, Gujarat and Saurashtra. The morpholigical details and distribution of Coleus rorskohlii are fully described (cf. The Wealth of India, Vol. 11, C.S.I.R., India, 1950, page 308).
A pharmacologically effective substance has been obtained from a plant of the Labiatae family which substance has princi-10 pally a blood pressure lowering property and a positively inotro-pic effect. Preferably the roots of Coleus forskohlii are used for isolation of the pharmacologically effective substance.
The present invention provides a process for the isolation -of a pharmacologically effective substance from a plant of the Labiatae family which comprises extracting the dried and ground plant material with a hydrocarbon and then with solvents like aromatic hydrocarbons, aromatic and aliphatic halogenated hydro-carbons, dialkyl ethers, dialkyl ketones, alkanols, carboxylic acids and their esters or any solvent which will dissolve the - 20 desired pharmacologically effective substance, such solvents being for example dimethyl formamide and dimethyl sulfoxide, evaporating the extract to give a residue, either treating the residue with an alkanol and filtering the suspension to provide an alkanolic solution, or paritioning the residue between a pair of immiscible solvents, only one of which is capable of dissolv-ing the desired pharmacologically effective substance, evaporat-ing the alkanolic solution or the solution containing the de-sired substance to give a residue, subjecting the residue to 29 column chromatography, evaporating the chromatographic frac~ions . . .. . -, .. . - -. , ., . . - .

The residue from the halogenated hydrocarbon extract is extracted with a lower alkanol having from 1 - 6 carbon atoms, such as for example methanol which is preferred, until the re-moval of alkanol soluble material is complete. The volume of alkanol used is preferably in the ratio of 1 : 10 to 1 : 40 parts by weight of residue to alkanol. The alkanolic extracts are combined and filtered to give an alkanolic solution.
The second process for treating the residue from the alkanol extract is partitioning the residue between a pair of immiscible solvents, one of which is capable of dissolving the desired pharmacologically effective substance, and the other is a solvent in which the desired substance is insoluble, such a pair of solvents being preferably chloroform and water. An approximately 1 : 1 (V : V) mixture of chloroform - water is ~efera_ly used.- The chloroform layer is separated.
The resulting alkanolic solution of the first process or the organic solvent layer of the second process are evaporated ; to dryness under reduced pressure, preferably in vacuo and the residue is subjected to chromatography, preferably on a column of silica gel or alumina using as eluants organic solvents or mixtures of these solvents of increasing polarity known to those skilled in the art. The preferred organic solvents used as eluants for column chromatography are: petroleum ether (B.p. 60 - 80 C), petroleum ether-benzene mixtures, benzene, benzene-ethyl acetate or benzene-chloroform mixtures, ethyl acetate-methanol or chloroform-methanol mixtures and methanol.

The molecular formula of the active substance is C22H34O7 which has been computed from the molecular weight of 410 mass units determined by mas$ spectrometry and from the following elemental analytical data: C 64 - 65 ~ and H=8 - 8.5 %.
- ~0 C22H34O7 requires C = 64.37 and H - 8.35 %.
The ultraviolet spectrum shows absorption at~max 208 - 210 (~max 900 - 1200) an~ 305 - 310 nm ( ~ max 45 - 55). The infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra are shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings. The specific rotation [~]25 is -20 to - -30 (c = 1.7 in CHC13).
The active substance is soluble in organic solvents such as meihanol, ethanol, propanol, acetone, chloroform, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, benzene and ether.
The active substance exhibits physical and chemical proper-2a ties usually shown by terpenoids. Several crystalline deriva- l ¦
tiyes have been maae some of which are for example (a) a dihydro deriyative~ m.p, 245-8, (~ an acetate, m.p. ~99 - 205, and (c~ a methyl ether, m.p. ~74 - ~76.

The residue from the halogenated hydrocarbon extract is extracted with a lower alkanol having from 1 - 6 carbon atoms, such as for example methanol which is preferred, until the re-moval of alkanol soluble material is complete. The volume of alkanol used is preferably in the ratio of 1 : 10 to 1 : 40 parts by weight of residue to alkanol. The alkanolic extracts are combined and filtered to give an alkanolic solution.
The second process for treating the residue from the alkanol extract is partitioning the residue between a pair of immiscible solvents, one of which is capable of dissolving the desired pharmacologically effective substance, and the other is a solvent in which the desired substance is insoluble, such a pair of solvents being preferably chloroform and water. An approximately 1 : 1 (V : V) mixture of chloroform - water is ~efera_ly used.- The chloroform layer is separated.
The resulting alkanolic solution of the first process or the organic solvent layer of the second process are evaporated ; to dryness under reduced pressure, preferably in vacuo and the residue is subjected to chromatography, preferably on a column of silica gel or alumina using as eluants organic solvents or mixtures of these solvents of increasing polarity known to those skilled in the art. The preferred organic solvents used as eluants for column chromatography are: petroleum ether (B.p. 60 - 80 C), petroleum ether-benzene mixtures, benzene, benzene-ethyl acetate or benzene-chloroform mixtures, ethyl acetate-methanol or chloroform-methanol mixtures and methanol.
The fractions eluted by benzene-ethyl acetate or benzene-chloroform and containing the desired compownd as indicated by , . ~ .
thin-layer chromatography are combined and evaporated to dry-.i., .

ness under reduced pressure, preferably in vacuo, and the re-sidue is recrystallized from organic solvents, preferably ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (b.p. 60 - 80 C) to give a colorless crystalline product melting at 230 - 232 C which is the pharma-cologically active substance of the present invention.
The molecular formula of the active substance is C22H34O7 which has been computed from the molecular weight of 410 mass units determined by mas$ spectrometry and from the following elemental analytical data: C 64 - 65 ~ and H=8 - 8.5 %.
- ~0 C22H34O7 requires C = 64.37 and H - 8.35 %.
The ultraviolet spectrum shows absorption at~max 208 - 210 (~max 900 - 1200) an~ 305 - 310 nm ( ~ max 45 - 55). The infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra are shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings. The specific rotation [~]25 is -20 to - -30 (c = 1.7 in CHC13).
The active substance is soluble in organic solvents such as meihanol, ethanol, propanol, acetone, chloroform, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, benzene and ether.
The active substance exhibits physical and chemical proper-2a ties usually shown by terpenoids. Several crystalline deriva- l ¦
tiyes have been maae some of which are for example (a) a dihydro deriyative~ m.p, 245-8, (~ an acetate, m.p. ~99 - 205, and (c~ a methyl ether, m.p. ~74 - ~76. The spectral and chemical 1 data reveal, in particular, that the active substance is a di- , terpenoid possessing a labd-~4-ene carbon skeleton 'i . I
