The phytochemical investigation of the leaf of the plant yielded a flavonoid Eucalyptin 1 and a triterpinoid Epibetulinic acid 2 in pure state. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The compound 1 is being reported for the first time from this plant. The anti-cancer activity showed leaf hexane extract (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values 8.177 and 2.687 &amp;micro;g/ml) was significantly active, when compared to extracts and compounds, against human cancer cell lines MCF-7 and DU-145. Also, hexane extract potentially inhibited the growth of DU-145 cell lines when compared with the reference compound doxorubicin. Amongst the isolated compounds, 1 was better cytotoxic than 2. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The hexane extract of leaves of &lt;em&gt;S. alternifolium&lt;/em&gt; yielded compounds 1 and 2 and the structure elucidation, based on spectroscopy, revealed them as Eucalyptin and Epibetulinic acid respectively. The compound 1 is being reported for the first time from this plant. The anti-cancer activity showed leaf hexane extract (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values 8.177 and 2.687 mg/mL) was significantly active, when compared to extracts and compounds, against human cancer cell lines MCF-7 and DU-145.
