Abstract

This study was carried out to isolate and to identify the compounds and to find out antioxidants from the leaf of Distylium racemosum which belongs to Hamamelidaceae family. To isolate compounds, leaf of this plant were extracted with 50% Acetone and then crude extracts was partitioned with hexane. ether and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) successively. After partitioned, EtOAc fraction was subjected to column chromatography with various solvent systems in silica gel and/or Sephadex LH-20. (omitted)
