ABSTRACT
This study aims to isolate and identify of metabolite n-Hexane extract of Kratom
Stem (M. speciosa Korth) The sampel used came from Maros Regency, South
Sulawesi. The stage of research includes sample preparation, extraction,
partitioning, fractionation, purification and identification. The pure isolates in the
form of white powder identified with three eluents system TLC showed a single
stain and the isolate melted at a temperature of 170-172°C. And FTIR spectrum
data showed the functional groups of N-H secondary, C-H aliphatic, C-N, C-O, C-
H, -CH2- dan -CH3 aliphatic, C = C and C = O. Based on FTIR spectrum data
supported by group test result, it was concluded that the compounds obtained
were alkaloid compounds.
