Subban Murugesan and Annamalai Panneerselvam

A valuable Indian ethnomedicinal plant, Memecylon umbellatum was investigated for GC-MS (Gas chromatography- Mass spectrophotometry) analysis to determine the chemical constituent present in various extracts of stem. Powdered stem plant materials was subjected to successive extract on with organic solvents such as petroleum ether, chloroform and ethanol by soxhlet extraction method. Totally, 20 different compound from chloroform extract, 11 different compounds from petroleum ether extract and 10 various compounds from ethanol extract were identified. All the compounds identified medicinally valuable for the treatment of various human ailments.in addition, all the phytochemical compounds were needed further investigation on toxological aspects for the development of new lead of therapeutic interest.
