Phytoconstituents present in the ethanolic extract of Panicum maximum leaves were explored by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry analysis. The compounds were identified by the gas chromatography coupled with the mass spectrometry. The molecular weight and structure of the compounds of Panicum maximum leaves were ascertained by interpretation of the spectrum of GC-MS using the database of National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST). GC-MS analysis of Panicum maximum leaves revealed the presence of nineteen biological active compounds. The compounds are benzenamine, 4,4'-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethenylidene]bis[N,N-dimethyl-, cyclopropanecarboxylic acid, 1-(phenylmethyl)-, 2,6-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-methylphenyl ester, [4,5'-bipyrimidine]-2,2'-diamine, 4',6-dimethoxy-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-, 12-Hydroxystearic acid, phenacyl ester, azadirachtin, de[(E)-2-methyl-1-oxo-2-butenyl](1,2-dioxopropyl)dihydro-, tricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7)]decane, 1,2,2,3,4,4,6,6,8,8,9,9,10,10-tetradecafluoro-5,7-bis(trifluoromethyl)- , spiro[cyclohexane-1,3'-[3H]indole]-2'-carboxy-o-toluidide, 7'-methyl-, 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine, N',N''-bis(3-aminophenyl)-N,N-diphenyl-,4''-dehydroxy-2'',3',3'',4',5,6'',7-hepta-O-methylisoorientin, 9,10-anthracenedione, 1,4-bis[(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)amino]- , l-valine, n-heptafluorobutyryl-, heptadecyl ester, pyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine, 4,8-di-m-anisidino-2,6-diethoxy- , 2,3,7,7,12,13,17,18-Octaethyl-21H,23H-porphine-8-one, 6-fluoro-2-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid, 2-formyl-4,6-dichlorophenyl ester, 2-hydroxyskatole, benzo[f]cyclopenta[a]quinolizine-6,7,7a,8,9,10(8H)-hexacarboxylic acid, 6,7-dihydro-, hexamethyl ester, ethyl 2-butyl-3-[[(ethoxycarbonyl)methyl]amino]crotonate , quinoxaline, 2,3-dimethyl-, 4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, 5,6-bis(acetyloxy)-2-[3-(acetyloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl]-3,7-dimethoxy- It was concluded that the bioactive compounds support the use of Panicum maximum leaves in the treatment of diseases like cancer, diabetes and hypertension.
