Research Conducted or Supervised  Natural Products:

Essential oils, polyphenols, iridoids



 Eucalyptus trees: Extraction, quantitative and qualitative analysis of essential oils (leaves) and condensed tannins (bark).  Vine leaves polyphenols (proanthocyanidins, flavonols, anthocyanidins): Extraction, quantitative analysis, isolation and identification by spectroscopic tools (mass and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy).  Phytochemical investigations of various Moroccan medicinal plants used in traditional pharmacopeae.

 Analytical methods:

 Chromatography: HPLC/DAD, HPLC/ESI-MS. Application to the study of the condensation of flavanols and anthocyanins in model solution systems.  Spectroscopy: ESI/MS, MS/MS, ICD MS, 1D ( 1 H, 13 C) and 2D (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY, ROESY) NMR techniques. Application to the structural elucidation of natural and synthesized compounds.
