Abstract: The Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench was previously reported to have various phytochemicals. Chemical fractionation yielded from the ethanolic extract of the A. esculentus ten compounds, including four alkaloids (4-6, 8) and six phenolic acids (1-3, 7, 9-10). The structures of the compounds were elucidated through extensive spectra analyses and comparison of the experimental data with reported data. It is worth mentioning that compounds 1, 2 and 5-10 were isolated from Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) for the first time.
