Abstract
The Croton macrostachyus is used for the treatment of malaria, venereal diseases, cough, diabetes, constipation, tape worms and hepatitis. The dichloromethane extract of the stem bark of Croton macrostachyus was afforded two Terpenoids: the compound with full structure which is a triterpenoid and a compound with a partial structure which is a tetratrpenoid. Structural determination was accomplished by means of spectroscopic methods (IR, UV, 1D and 2D NMR). Keywords: Croton macrostachyus, dichloromethane, spectroscopic methods, Terpenoids DOI: 10.7176/CMR/12-3-01 Publication date: March 31 st 2020
