ABSTRACT
In the basic healthcare systems of underdeveloped nations, medicinal plants are regarded as the most significant. A plant's medicinal qualities are determined by the biochemical components found in the plant sections used to make medication. The Fabaceae family includes the well-known medicinal herb Senna auriculata. The goal of the current investigation was to assess the phytochemical screening and identification of potential bioactive ingredients in the various extract of flowers of Senna auriculata. Alkaloids, glycosides, terpenoids, phenols, tannins, and flavonoids were among the phytochemicals found in the various fraction of Senna auriculate flower. The three extracts have 21 bioactive components, the main phytocompound in different extracts being 13-Docosenamide (Z), along with phytol, resorcinol, vitamin E, ?-Sitosterol, and resorcinol monoacetate. Therefore, the plant's medicinal properties may be due to the presence of thesehytochemicals. Hence, more Numerous physiologically active compounds have been found in Senna auriculata flower extracts, necessitating further biological and pharmacological study. Keywords: Senna auriculata, Selective sequential extraction, GC-MS analysis, Soxhlet extraction
