چکیده
Fractionation of petroleum ether partitioned ethanol extract and crude petroleum ether extract of the leaves of Murraya koenigii Linn (Rutaceae) led to the isolation of 5,8-dimethyl furanocoumarin (1) and 1-al, 3[6’, 6’ dimethyl 5-hexene] carbazole (2) and β-sitosterol (3). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods such as UV, IR, NMR and LCMS. All the compounds were isolated for the first time from this plant.
