Abstract
Neem is a medicinal plant traditionally used for the cure of diabetes, leprosy, fever and respiratory ailments. The present study was undertaken to explore the possible bioactive compounds found in Azadirachta indica A. Juss which have been analysed using Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry analysis. The mass spectra of the compounds discovered were matched to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) library. The results revealed the presence of twenty major compounds in the ethanolic flower extract which are compound are dihydroxy-Propanedioic acid (3.6257%), Glyceraldehyde (3.5567%), Erythritol (0.8183%), 4H-Pyran-4-one, 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl- (0.3838%), 2 Pentadecanone, 6,10,14-trimethyl- (0.1734%), n-Hexadecanoic acid (2.1955%), Hexadecanoic acid, ethyl ester (0.5283%), Linoleic acid ethyl ester (0.1385%), Ethyl Oleate (0.2051%), Tetracosane (0.1311%), Tetracontane (0.6984%), Eicosane (0.2829%), 2-Methyltetracosane (0.6592%), Hexatriacontane (2.5669%), n- Hexadecanoic acid (2.1955%), 2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethyl ester (0.6974%), beta.-Sitosterol (3.3581%), Nonacosane (0.1475%), Tetrapentacontane (11.5463%), Dotriacontane (1.7905%).
