Abstract

It was performed the phytochemical study to the ethereum and alcoholic extracts of the Cuban Isocarpha showing the presence of flavonoids, triterpens, steroids and other secondary metabolites  to obtain ethereum, aqueous  and alcoholic extracts. There were performed posterior extractions  with growing polarity solvents with the objective to obtain a greater  tiredness of the dry vegetal material. In the identification of the secondary metabolites, through the methodology of posterior maceration with growing polar solvents, there were used simple, fast and selective techniques for specific chemical formulas, in a way that for each extract there were practiced the specific essays for the metabolites that can be taken with each solvent according to its solubility. It was checked the great diversity of secondary metabolites with positive answers presented in Blake cuban Isocharpa.
