ABSTRACT

Kigelia pinnata DC belongs to family bignoniaceous and rich source of flavonoids, tannins, steroids, cardiac glycoside, terpenoids and saponins so all parts of Kigelia pinnata DC. are used in traditional folk medicine system. Phytochemical examination on the methanolic extract of Kigelia pinnata DC. stem bark led to the isolation of n-propyl decanoate (A), kigelin (B), 6-methoxy mullein (C), octacosanol (D) and 6-demethylkigelin (E). Characterization of above mentioned compounds was done on the basis of spectral studies (IR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, MS).
