Abstract

Tabebuia rosea, locally known as ‘tecoma’ or ‘Malaysian Sakura’ is a popular planted trees along roadsides with beautiful pink and white flowers. In this study, the functional groups such as phenolic compounds containing in the extracted oil from T. rosea flowers were investigated. The fall flowers of Tabebuia rosea were collected, dried and grounded. The powdered samples were subjected to solidliquid extraction process using ethyl acetate as a solvent (100 g/L) for 48 hours to extract the oil. Fourier- Transfrom Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) were furthered carried out and the sample were found to have phenolic and flavonoid compounds.
