GC-MS and FT-IR Analyses of Ethylacetate Leaf extract of Abutilon indicum (L.) Sweet

The present study was aimed at analysis of bioactive constituents of leaves from Abutilon indicum. The ethyl acetate extract of the leaves were subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Gas chromatographymass spectroscopic (GCMS) analysis. GC-MS analysis of plant extract was performed using a Perkin-Elmer GC Clarus 500 system and Interpretation on mass spectrum GC-MS was conducted using the database of National Institute Standard and Technology (NIST) and IR spectrum was recorded in spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific NICOLET-iS5). FT-IR analysis of peak values with various functional compounds such as alcohols, phenols, alkanes, alkynes, alkyl halides, aldehydes, carboxylic acids and aromatics. GC-MS analysis of compounds with totally, sixteen compounds major chemical compounds were identified, such as 4 hydroxyphenylacetic acid methyl ester, 5-Thio-D-glucose, 5-Allylsulfanyl-1-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-1H-tetrazole,E)-10-Heptadecen-8-ynoicacid methyl ester and Z-11-Hexadecenoic acid. FT-IR analysis of ethyl acetate extract of leaves of A. indicum was carried out and presented in Fig. 2. The compounds indicated shows that the band at 3308, 2962, 2066, 1657, 1541, 1456, 1384, 1308, 1383, 1170, 1124, 651, 584, 495, 475, 464 and 454 cm-1. From the present study, it is concluded that the phytochemicals was observed in ethyl acetate extract which reveals that Abutilon indicum is highly valuable in medicinal usage for the treatment of various human aliments.
