Dereplication of Waltheria indica (Malvaceae) Using Molecular Network Tools

The chemical profile of Waltheria indica (Malvaceae) was evaluated by dereplication analysis using High Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled with Mass Spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS), and data acquisition was approached by chemoinformatics tools such as MZMine, MS-FINDER software and Global Natural Product Social Molecular Network (GNPS). Twenty-one 4-quinolone alkaloids were noted in flowers and leaves and twenty-eight were noted in stem and root analysis, thus obtaining promising results.
