Mangkokan (Nothophanax scutellarium merr.) is an ornamental plant that can be used to treat disease. Generally, the leaves are used as a lactant, diuretic or medicine to treat breast inflammation, swelling, hair loss, fever, headaches and constipation. The research objective was to identify the active compound content via Fourier Transform Infrared Radiation (FTIR) in Mangkokan leaf extract. This study used n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and ethanol as solvents. The yield was 2.4% with 2.4 g n-hexane extract, a yield of 3.39% with 3.39 g of ethyl acetate extract, a yield of 17.39% with 17.39 g of methanol extract, and a yield of 19.55% with 19.55 g ethanol extract. The secondary metabolite test obtained positive n-hexane extract results containing steroids, positive ethyl acetate extract containing alkaloids (using Dragendorff's, Mayer's and Wagner's reagents), steroids and phenols. In contrast, methanol and ethanol extracts had the same content, namely alkaloids (confirmed via Dragendorff's, Mayer's and Wagner's reagents), flavonoids, steroids, tannins, phenols and saponins. FTIR analyzed fuctional groups for each extract through radiation at different wavelengths. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
