Mahogany bark (Swietenia mahagoni Jacq.) has properties as a medicinal plant. Through the phytochemical screening, the mahogany bark (Swietenia mahagoni Jacq.) contains antioxidant compounds such as alkaloids, saponins and phenolics. The aim of this study was to determine the presence of antioxsidant activity in the extract of mahogany bark (Swietenia mahagoni Jacq.). using the DPPH method with a concentration of 250 mg / L, 200 mg / L, 150 mg / L and 100 mg / L and Vitamin C p.a as a positive control. Each sample made three repetitions of the test. The test uses a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The result of the study showed that mahogany bark (Swietenia mahagoni Jacq.) showed antioxidant activity with the percentage of 21,50% at the concentration at 250 mg / L
