Phytochemical study on the aerial parts of Solanum lyratum (Solanaceae) was carried out. On the basis of phytochemical and spectroscopic evidences, compound I was identified as misctures of hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, 2,6,10,15-tetra methyl heptadecane, tricosane, tetracosane, pentacosane, docosanoic acid methyl ester, docosane, tricosanoic acid methyl ester, 8-hexyl pentadecane, tetracosanoic acid methyl ester, pentatriacontane, hexatriacontane, eicosane, hexacosane, hentriacontane and stigmasta-5,23-dien 3-β-o1, and compound II, III, IV and V were identified as hexacosanoic acid methyl ester, β-sitosterol-D-glucoside, 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1->2)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl diosgenin and 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1->6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl quercetin (rutin), respectively. Rutin was identified as one of the active principles having antioxidative effect from S. lyratum.
