Abstract

Traditionally Terminalia arjuna Roxb. (T. arjuna) is being used widely to cure various diseases like cardiovascular diseases, liver diseases, and cancer etc. The aim of the present study is to phytochemical analysis of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanolic fractions of T. arjuna bark by GC-MS analysis. The present investigation was carried out to determine the possible bioactive components of T. arjuna bark using GC-MS analysis. The GC-MS analysis of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanolic fractions of bark of T. arjuna leads identified of 10, 12 and 16 compounds, respectively. The main identified compounds are 9-Octadecenoic acid (Z)-methyl ester (35.38 %), Hexadeca-2,6,10,14-tetraen-1-ol (34.94 %) and Furancarboxaldehyde, 5-(hydroxymethyl) (19.31 %) from petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanolic fractions of bark of T. arjuna, respectively. The present study is therefore an effort to give detailed information on phytochemical profile of T. arjuna bark by GC-MS method.
