Salix martiana Leyb.is an endemic species from the Amazon river floodplain areas (varzeas), of the State of Amazonas.Stems and leaves were extracted with dichloromethane, methanol and hydro-alcohol and these extracts were fractionated by using conventional chromatographic techniques.

The major substances isolated, salicin and trichocarposide tillman 750m (6-0-p-coumaroyl salicin), were determined through analyses of NMR 1D (¹H and 13C) and NMR 2D (gHSQC and gHMBC).These compounds were isolated for the first time in Salix martiana Leyb.(Salicaceae).

The percentage of these compounds in fp9550bk S.martiana is very high.The extracts were analyzed for their DPPH antioxidant capacity and the methanolic from the leaves and the hydro-alcoholic from the stems were the more active.
