Abstract

GC-MS-MS analysis was carried out for the identification of the phytochemicals present in the methanolic leaf extract of Trichilia connaroides. It indicates that the leaf extract is rich in phenolics, fatty acids, flavonoids and antioxidants. Many phytochemcial compounds such as Naphthalene, Palmitic acid, Oleic acid, Isotridecanol, phytol, Lycopersen, Isochiapin B and Serverogenin acetate have been identified. These compounds have been found to possess anti-insect, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and antiulcerogenic activities.
