These metabolites include alkaloids, anthraquinones, leucoanthocyanin, phenolic compound, saponin, steroid, tannin, and terpenoids. Results of the study showed that there was a 30 of extract yielded for every 100 grams of plant leaf. Physical properties of the extract of Panhauli leaves showed that it has a 103. 3oC boiling point, brown color and a pleasant odor, its density was 1.02g mL and a neutral pH. Further physical test showed it is miscible in methanol and water, and immiscible in chloroform and dichloromethane which signifies that the Panhauli leaves extracts has a polar components. Finally phytochemical tests of the Panhauli extract showed the confirmed positive results in alkaloid and saponin only, other secondary metabolites mentioned here in this study were deemed negative.
