I am working on isolation of compounds from plant. I used 80% methanol for extraction and then made fraction of n-hexane, chloroform and n-butanol. during isolation of compounds from n-butanol fraction i get some material which s neither soluble in methanol nor water. what may be it is???
and another thing is i got clear crystal soluble in water from butanol fraction. what are these crystal may be?
Very simple to do...
give me the missing informations:
1- full name of plant = ?.
2- Mp (°C) = ?
With ScienceFinder of ScienceDirect, you will compare your experimental data and those published...
Tell me what you will found or I will kill you....The best is waiting for you...

your insoluble material is most probably balasts, lignin and/or cellulosic stuff.
Crystal can be tartarates or oxalates, I don't know which plants you are using.
It could be oxalate, perform FTIR on those crystals
