Abstract:

The chemical composition of n-hexane extractable fractions of leaf of Morettiaphillaeanawere analyzed by Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC/MS). The first fraction (n-Hexane) was dominated by aliphatic hydrocarbons (80.66%), fatty acids (9.00%) and esters (3.18%) as the main constituents, while the second and third fractions (n-Hexane) were dominated by alkanes (100%) for each fraction. Hydrocarbons (28.15%), alcohols (8.92%), ketones (7.35%) and aldehydes (7.35%). dominated the fourth fraction (ethyl acetate).
