Gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy studies in stem bark of Ficus hispida L.

Abstract

The GC- MS Analysis determined the presence of 15 different phytochemical compounds in acetone and ethanol stem extract of F. hispida. The phytoconstituents compounds were found in the mass spectra matched with the CIL/ SAIF Panjab University Chandigarh Library. The major phytoconstituents in ethanot extract of stem bark observed the presence of cyclopentasiloxane, (3.94%) decamethyl benzoic acid (3.94%)a – 3 – Dodecene Cyclohexasalioxane (7.2 %), 8- Hepadecene (1.63%), Tetradecamethyloctasiloxane (4.83%), 1.1 dimethylethyl (0.67%) 5- methoxyindane (6.31%), 1 – tert Buty 1-3 (4.13%), Naphtalene (28.52%). a – iso butyl 2 (6.27%), phenol, 4- Naphtalene (47.32%) This may be the first report of documentation of active constituents from stem bank of F. hispida. The results of the present study revealed that the stem bark of F. hispida having effective potential bioactive Compounds, which may be leads to the formulation of new drags to treat various skin diseases.
