Piliostigma thonningii (Schumach Mile-Redh) is a species of the Fabaceae family. In Côte d'Ivoire, the young, unopened leaves of this species are used to treat certain pathologies. The aim of this study was to determine the compounds present in the ethyl acetate fraction of young, unopened leaves of Piliostigma thonningii. Successive fractionation of the hydroethanol extract resulted in the ethyl acetate fraction. LC-MS analysis identified seven (7) compounds in this fraction. These analyses revealed that young, unopened leaves of Piliostigma thonningii are rich in unidentified chemical compounds.
