ABSTRACT

Herbal have a long traditional history or use of conventional medicine. The Cupressus Semperviren Linn. Garden plant belong to family cupressaaceae. The plant contain different chemical constituents like such as Glycosides, Essential oil, Phenols, Flavonoids etc. The main aim of the study was to extract the plant material by using pet- ether as a solvent by soxhelt extraction method. From the phytochemical analysis the plant was showed chemical constituents. The phytochemical constituent was isolation and separation by using thin layer chromatography and column chromatography. each chemical constituent were identified by using physical and chemical test. Isolated chemical constituent were subjected to further study that is it Spectral analysis like IR, NMR, And Mass spectroscopy the pet ether extact of plant was used for Pharmacological study such as Diuretic activity .the increase diuretic activity of plant was done by using LIPSCHITSZ test.

Keywords: Cupressus Semperviren Linn., chromatographic analysis, Diuretic activity.
