Abstract: Croton hirtus L’Hér methanol extract was studied by NMR and two different LC-DAD-MSn using electrospray (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) sources to obtain a quali-quantitative fingerprint. Forty different phytochemicals were identified, and twenty of them were quantified, whereas the main constituents were dihydro α ionol-O-[arabinosil(1-6) glucoside] (133 mg/g), dihydro β ionol-O-[arabinosil(1-6) glucoside] (80 mg/g), β-sitosterol (49 mg/g), and Citation: Dall’Acqua, S.; Sinan, K.I.; isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside (26 mg/g). C. hirtus was extracted with different solvents—namely, Sut, S.; Ferrarese, I.; Etienne, O.K.; water, methanol, dichloromethane, and ethyl acetate—and the extracts were assayed using different Mahomoodally, M.F.; Lobine, D.; in vitro tests.
