ABSTRACTObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of bioactive compounds in the methanolic leaf extract of Syzygium jambos.Methods: Collected leaves were shade dried and made into fine powder, extracted with methanol, and the methanolic extract was prepared andanalyzed for the presence of bioactive compounds by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The mass spectrum of the chromatographywas matched with NIST and WILEY Libraries.Results: The GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 45 active compounds in the extract. From the GC-MS investigation, 1-Deoxy-d-mannitol3-methyl-2-methylsulfanyl-5-nitro-6-pyridin-4-ylpyrimidin-4-one, 3-Pentadecylphenol, 2-biphenylene carboxylic acid, Quinoline-3-carboxylic acid,and Stigmast-5-en-3-ol are important phytoconstituents which have antipyretic and antiparasitic activities.Conclusion: The present investigation revealed preliminary information on phytocompounds presented in S. jambos leaf extract which is very usefulfor the human community.Keywords: Syzygium jambos, Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, 1-Deoxy-d-mannitol, Phytoconstituents, Methanolic leaf extract.
