The plants which have an array of substances, produce several bioactive compounds which help in curing diseases, relieving pain and maintaining good health are termed as medicinal plants. They are recognized in the pharmaceutical industry for the development of new drugs for human benefit and chemotherapeutics as herbal remedies. Hence, all the parts of the plants have been used from the ancient times as folklore or traditional medicine especially in India, China, etc. Phyla nodiflora (L) Greene, is one such plant which is in common use since ancient. The different extracts are used for curing fever, cold, diarrhoea, ulcers, pain in knee joints, asthma, bronchitis, as anti-inflammatory, gonorrhea, hair affliction, dandruff etc as it contain a variety of constituents such as sugar, triterpenoids, flavonoids, phenol, steroids, essential oils, resins, tannins and many others, and the present study aimed to screen and identify the novel compounds present in P. nodiflora using HPLC-MS and GC-MS with different organic solvents. Of which, 26 bioactive compounds were identified in the chloroform extract, which are not reported elsewhere.

Phyla nodiflora, HPLC-MS and GC-MS, Phenol,3,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethy), 1,2- Benzenedicarboxylic acid, bis, Dibutyl phthalate.
