Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Phytochemical constituents are responsible for medicinal activity of plant species. Rumex vesicarius is one of the medicinally important plants belonging to the family Polygonaceae and used in the treatment of cooling, laxative, stomachic, tonic, analgesic, appetizer, diuretic, astringent, purgative. In the present study the methanolic extract of Rumex vesicarius has been subjected to GC-MS analysis. Sixty chemical constituents have been identified, The major chemical constituents are n-Hexadecanoic acid (17.87%), 2(4H)-Benzofuranone, 5,6,7,7A-Tetrahydro-6-H (11.44%), 1,3-Butanedione, 1-Phenyl- (24.79%), triphenyl- Stibine (20.32%), 9,10-Anthracenedione, 1,8-dihydroxy-3-methy (31.04%) and Ethyl Oleate (15.17%). Medicinal potential of these compounds need further research on toxicological aspects to develop safe drug.
