GC-MS and FT-IR Profiling of leaves methanol extract from the Pleiospermium alatum (Wall. ex Wt. & Arn) Swingle Rutaceae family
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
The present study was aimed to analysis of bioactive constituents of leaves from the Pleiospermium alatum (Rutaceae). The methanol extract of the leaves were subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Gas chromatography- mass spectroscopic (GC-MS) analysis. GC-MS analysis of plant extract was performed using a Perkin-Elmer GC Clarus 500 system and Interpretation on mass spectrum GC-MS was conducted using the database of National Institute Standard and Technology (NIST) and IR spectrum was recorded in spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific NICOLET-iS5). FT-IR analysis of peak values with various functional compounds such as amizone, alcohol, phenol, alkanes, protein, enzyme, alkanes, isopropyl. GC-MS analysis of compounds with totally, thirty compounds major chemical compounds were identified, such as 5- Thio-D-glucose, 5-Allylsulfanyl-1-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1H-tetrazole, E)-10-Heptadecen-8-ynoicacid methyl ester and Z-11-Hexadecenoic acid. The present results concluded that the phytochemicals was observed in methanol extract which revealed that the P. alatum is potential use in different fields namely medical and pharmaceuticals and highly valuable in medicinal usage for the treatment of various human aliments.
