The present study was carried out to preliminary phytochemical evaluation and to characterize the bioactive constituents present is methanolic extracts of alysicarpus monlifier L .(DC) . (PAPILIONACEAE) using UV,FTIR and GC-MS(Preliminary qualitative chemical test for methanolic extract shows the presence of tannins, phenolic compounds,saponins, flavonoids, carbohydrate,phyto sterols.) The crude extracts were scanned in the wavelength ranging from 200-1100nm by using perkin elmer spectrophotomer and the characteristic peaks were detected. For GC-Ms analysis, while the mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched by the NIST library. The FTIR spectrum shows may be the presence of aminoacid, phenol, alkanes, carboxylic acids, aliphatic amines and alkyl halides. The results of the GC-MS analysis, nine chemical constituents have been identified. The major chemical constituents were pentadecanoic acid 14-methyl,1-methyl ester(26.87%), tetradecanoic acid (11.08%), eruic acid (28.02%) and cyclic 3-1,2 ethane diyl acital (11.92%), The Extract was screened for antibacterial activity against staphylococcus aureas, pseudomonas, E-coli and basillus Alysicarpus monilifer showed potent antibacterial activity against gram negative and gram positive bacteria.
