The bioactive compounds from plant sources play an essential role in the treatment of various human diseases. Isolation and identification of new bioactive compounds from plants may leads to development of new drugs. The present study was conducted to identify the various bioactive compounds from ethanolic extract of Polyalthia cerasoides stem bark by using Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Some alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, terpenes and polyphenols are identified with the help of computer assisted evaluation of the resulting data. Some of these identified compounds reported to have great pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory activity, potent antioxidant properties, rheumatic pain relief, anti-diabetic and anti-neoplastic activity. This type study may useful for exploration of novel compounds present in plant sources.
