Anti-HIV lignans were purified from extract of Larrea tridentata by hi
gh-speed countercurrent chromatography (CCC) using pH-zone-refining CC
C. When a column filled with methyl t-butyl ether, containing trifluor
oacetic acid at 25 mM, was eluted with aqueous NaOH, 10 to 20 g of the
crude extract was separated into NDGA (nordihydroguaiaretic acid) and
its monomethyl esters rectangular peaks associated with their specifi
c pH (pH zones). The method was also successfully applied to synthetic
lignans, resulting in resolution of NDGA and its mono and dimethyl es
ters.
