Bioassay Guided Isolation and Characterization of Secondary Metabolites from Indigenous Cestrum Species

Abstract
I bow my head before Almighty ALLAH, the most Merciful, for benevolent blessings enabling me to complete my present work. I would like to express my deepest gratitude and sincere thanks to my supervisor Professor Dr. Ikhtiar Khan whose sustained guidance, sagacity and unstinting support made this research possible. A particular depth of gratitude is due to my co-supervisor Professor Dr. Murad Ali Khan, Chairman Chemistry Department, KUST, KPK, for providing excellent research facilities as well as an equally impressive ambiance for academic pursuits and research. I am also grateful to Dr Yousaf Iqbal, Director Institute of Chemical Sciences, University of Peshawar. I am especially thankful to Professor Dr. Viqar Uddin Ahmad (HEJ Karachi), Dr. Aqib Zahoor, Dr. Saliha Sulaiman (HEJ Karachi), Dr Mubeen Rani (Karachi University, Karachi) and Dr. Afsar Khan (COMSATS Abbatabad) for helping me in 2 D NMR spectroscopic analysis of the isolated compounds. My thanks also go to Pakistan Council of Scientific and Industrial Research Laboratories (PCSIR) Complex Peshawar for providing me a platform to continue the work.
