Abstract :
A phytochemical study was conducted on the leaves of Phyllanthus reticulatus obtained from a riverside in Taman Negara Kuala Koh, Kelantan. The separations of the chemical components were carried out using different chromatographic techniques and structures of compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including nuclear magnetic resonance as well as mass spectrometry. Three compounds were isolated and identified as lupeol acetate, stigmasterol and lupeol.
