Ipomoea sepiaria Koenig Ex. Roxb (convolvulaceae) is otherwise called as hedge bindweed. It is climber distributed in tropical and subtropical region. Ethanomedical and traditional usage of this plant reveals antidote for arsenic poisoning, uterine tonic, aphrodisiac and antiulcer, diuretic, leucorrhoea and in burning sensation during urination. Till date the plant was not explored about phytochemical, physicochemical and phytopharmacological relevance. Hence we aimed to study the physicochemical and preliminary phytochemical relevence. Separation of quercetin was attempted. The separated quercetin was characterized by 1H NMR and MASS spectrophotometry. This study paved the presence of quercetin in methanol and acetone extracts of Ipomoea sepiaria koenig ex. Roxb.
