Abstract
Benzene extract of heartwood of Cassia javanica afforded hentriacontane, β-sitosterol,
cerotic acid and β-sitosterol–D–glucoside. The pet. ether (60–80°) extract of stem
bark of the plant yielded n-octacosanol and β-sistosterol. The pet. ether extract
of leaves gave heptacosane, octacosane, hentriacontane, ceryl alcohol, octacosanol
and hentriacontanol.
