Abstract
The aim of the present study was to analyse, identify and find out the biological activity of bioactive compounds from methanolic leaf extract of Tephrosia vollosa of India Thar Desert by Gas Chromatography Mas Spectrometry analysis. Fresh disease free leaves were collected from the field, shade dried and powdered for extraction with methanol. Preliminary phytochemical screening of the extract was carried out following the standard methods to determine the presence of different phytochemical further the extract was analysed by GC-MS for identification of bioactive compounds present in the methanolic extract of T. villosa leaves. Phytochemical screening of crude extract showed the presence of alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, sterols, and saponins. GC-MS analysis revealed 72 phytochemical compounds, out of which 61 were identified. Terpenes and their derivatives were found in good quantity. Some major biologically important and medicinally important phytochemical identified in T.villosa leaf extract were naphthaline, 3-carene, neophytadiene, phytol, octacosanol, ergot-5-en-3-ol, lupeol and beta-sitosterol.
