Abstract
A survey of literature showed that no work has been done on Semecarpus anacardium L.f. Flowering Buds. The genus Semecarpus anacardium (Family: Anacardiaceae) is represented by about 83 genera and 860 species distributed throughout India existing as trees, shrubs and vines. Out of these, the commonly known Cashew family or Sumac family has tremendous commercial importance. Flowers dioecious, small up to 0.8 cm, dull greenish yellow in terminal panicles, sepals and petals 5 each. Stamens 10, Ovary unilocular; ovule1, pendulous; style 3. The GC-MS analysis the mass spectrum of the Methanolic extract of Semecarpus anacardium L.f. Was compared with the available library sources (NIST08 LIB, WILEY8 LIB)GC Methods it was found that Semecarpus anacardium L.f. Flowers contains25 components, Sterols, terpenoids and hydrocarbons were the most prominent. The major components detected were (23S)-ethylcholest-5-en-3(35.27%), 4, 4, 6a, 6b, 8a, 11, 12, 14b-Octamethyl-1, 4, 4a, 5, 6, 6a(9.02%), 3- Keto-urs-12-ene(9.02 %),. beta.-Amyrin (7.53 %), Stigmasterol(6.10%), Ergost-5-en-3-ol(5.81%)(Stigmast-4-en-3-ne (4.92%), Alpha Amyrin, n-hexadecanoic acid (3.26%), 9-Octadecenoicacid(3.06%), 1,2Dodecanediol(3.06 %) etc.
