Ethanolic and methanolic extracts of Jackfruit peels (Artocarpus integer) were investigated. The phytochemical screening revealed that the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, proteins and triterpenoids the active compounds. The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopic analysis of various extracts like ethanol and methanol identified the presence of various phytochemical compounds and secondary metabolit es like Hexadecanoic acid, Squalene, Calophyllolide, Thialisopyine and so on. Nuclear Mass Resonance Spectroscopy showed the presence of Alkyl group and carbon bearing OH group compounds. Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy of peel indicated the presence of major minerals like calcium, potassium and other minor minerals. All these findings implied the availability of various active and phytochemical compounds and also some minerals from the peel. It might be the potential resources for the development of the antioxidant function of dietary foods.
