The aim is to extract cyclic peptides, alkaloids, diaminoacids,
And at the same time get rid of the pigments and phenolic compounds

First, you should investigate what polarity the metabolites of your interest have and according to that, you will look for solvents that have a similar polarity. You can also base on the extract you already have and perform liquid-liquid extractions with immiscible solvents to eliminate the compounds you are not interested in.
