Abstract
In this study, we attempted to explore banana rhizome (BR) as a source of natural bioactive compounds. Dried
BR powder was subjected to sequential extraction using solvents with increasing polarity and studied for antioxidant
activities. Chloroform and acetone extracts were selected for isolation and identification of bioactive compounds because
of their high antioxidant properties. Antioxidant activity guided fractionation of these extracts yielded 3 compounds.
The spectroscopy studies revealed the identity of isolated compounds as 4-epicyclomusalenone, cycloeucalenol acetate
and chlorogenic acid. Polyphenolic compound chlorogenic acid and triterpenoid compounds, 4-cyclomusalenone and
cycloeucalenol acetate displayed multifunctional antioxidant activity.
