Product Information
Artemisinin (C15H22O5, CAS 63968-64-9) is a sesquiterpene lactone with an unusual endoperoxide bridge, isolated from the leaves of sweet wormwood (Artemisia annua), an herb known in Chinese herbal tradition as qinghao. The catalog lists a 99% grade. It is a white crystalline powder that is practically insoluble in water and dissolves in solvents such as ethanol and acetone, so it is formulated in capsules and tablets or with lipid carriers rather than in water-based products. The endoperoxide group is sensitive to heat and reducing conditions, so avoid high-temperature processing. It is also used as a starting material in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
