Cissus quadrangularis L. is a delicious plant of family Vitaceae commonly found in tropical and subtropical xeric wood. Flavonoids are one of secondary metabolites produced by plants. Flavonoids and phenolic acids have protective part in carcinogenesis, inflammation, atherosclerosis, thrombosis and have high anti-oxidant capacity. Inflammation is a part of the immune response against infection and has been associated in a broad range of diseases like as including diabetes, cancer, hypertension and atherosclerosis. The aim of the present study is to investigate the pharmacognostical and phytochemical investigation of the flower parts of the plant Cissus quadrangularis. Moreover, the absence of toxicity of plant extracts and the isolation of active compounds are significant to propose these plants as alternative approaches to resistance management and important inhibitory effect on the oedema formation. The structure was established based on analysis of HPLC, UV, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy methods.
