title: Identification of fatty acid esters and hydrocarbon derivatives from Cyrtocarpa procera Kunth by GC-MS.
abstract: Extracts obtained from Cyrtocarpa procera Kunth were evaluated to determine their toxicity on Artemia salina Leach. All the extracts showed a significant activity. Bioguided fractionation of these extracts led to the isolation of beta-sitosterol and the identification of 1,3-propyl-dipentadecanoate, 3-hydroxypropyl-9-octadecenoate, pentadecylbenzene, eicosylbenzene, docosane, heptacosane, dotriacontane and 2,6,10-trimethyltetradecane by GC-MS.
