Abstract 

In the present work, the stems of Trianthema portulacastrum and Phoenix d actylefera pollens were extracted with 95% ethanol at ambient temperature. Qualitative tests on alcoholic extract of Trianthema portulacastrum stems re vealed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, steroids, carb ohydrates and glycosides. The crude extracts of Trianthema portulacastrum and Phoenix daclylefera w ere initially purified by column chromatography. Further purification was ac complished by TLC technique. In this way Trianthema portulacastrum gave two flavonoids (compounds I and II) while Phoenix dactylefera gave compo unds III and IV. The structures of these compounds were deduced on the bas is of their spectral data (UV, 1HNMR and MS).
