Abstract
Throughout history, medicinal plants have been the primary source for preventing and treating infectious diseases and other health issues. Researchers are conducting investigations to search for novel, affordable, and secure sources of antibiotics, antioxidants, and antidiabetic compounds. The more effective the medicinal plant is, the higher its demand will be, and the likelihood of non-availability will rise. Different parts of the plant must be explored to accommodate the increased demand. The study examined the chemical composition based on the essential oil of Syzygium cumini. The most abundant compound was Bicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-ene, 2,6-dimethyl-6-(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)- (27.5%). Hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester (9.89%), 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, butyl 2-methylpropyl ester (8.36%). The study involves a thorough examination of the chemical composition of the essential oil extracted from Syzygium cumini leaves. The study lays the groundwork for future research on the specific plant.
