ABSTRACT
Tephrosia strigosa of family Fabaceae is an annual herbaceous plant growing in the rocky habitat of the Indian Thar desert. In this study, leaves of T.strigosa were screened for the identification of phytochemical compounds. Preliminary phytochemical screening was carried out on methanolic leaf extract to find out the primary and secondary phytochemical compounds. The secondary metabolites present in methanolic leaf extract were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy technique. Preliminary phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of primary and secondary metabolites such as carbohydrates, amino acids, phenols, alkaloids, terpenes, flavonoids, phytosterols, glycosides, saponin and fatty acids. GC-MS analysis revealed a total of 55 phytochemical compounds, out of which 52 were identified. Many significant compounds like 2-Methoxy-4-vinyl phenol, Benzofuran, Naphthalene, Neophytadiene, Phytol, Piperidine, Squalene, Lupeol, Hexadecanoic acid and Octadecanoic acid, etc., were reported in methanolic leaf extract. The extract was found rich in terpene compounds. Isolation of various bioactive compounds of T. strigosa can provide an opportunity to develop novel herbal drugs to cure various diseases with fewer side effects.
