Online published on 17 October, 2017. Abstract Millingtonia hortensis L.f. (Bignoniaceae) a native deciduous tree and is often cultivated as an ornamental tree in yards, garedens and avenues. The aim of the study to analyse bioactive phytoconstituents of flower extract of Millingtonia hortensis by GC-MS. The identified major compounds are Aspidoseprmidin 17-ol, 1-acety-19, 21epoxy-15, 16-dimethoxy (R.T: 27.90); 2-methyltetracosane (R.T: 28.24); Alfaxalone (R.T: 29.17); cis-13, 16-Docasdienoic acid (R.T: 30.86); Olean-12-ene-3, 15, 16, 21, 22, 28-hexol (R.T: 33.14); Stigmasta-5, 22-dien-3ol, acetate, (3β) (R.T: 34.20); β-Sitosterol (R.T: 35.72); Stigmasta-5, 24(28)-dien-3-ol, (3β) (R.T: 36.10); Betulin(R.T: 37.86). Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, glycosides, carbohydrate, phenolic compound and reducing sugar.
