Leaf extract of Acanthus montanus of the family Acanthacea which is widely used traditionally for medicinal purposes was worked on to elucidate the structure of the pharmaceutical active ingredients. Thin layer chromatography of chloroform leaf extract showed one spot with Rf value of 0.78. The extract was subjected to spectroscopic analysis using FTIR, Uv-Visible, H 1 NMR, C 13 NMR and GCMS instruments. The suggested structure for the chloroform leaf extract was 4-butyl acrylate (3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy phenyl). Antibacterial and Antifungal activity of the pure extract was carried out extract using 10 bacteria species (gram positive and gram negative) such as Salmonella sp, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus sp, Proteus vulgaris, S. albus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas pyocyania, Streptococcus sp, Klebsiella aerogenes and fungal cultures such as Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Candida alblicans with zone of inhibition ranging between 8 and 22mm. This antimicrobial result was compared with that of some standard antibiotics and was discovered to be potent and effective in both fungi and bacteria.
