CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF THE VOLATILE OIL FROM DIFFERENT PLANT PARTS OF ANETHUM GRAVEOLENS L. (UMBELLIFERAE) CULTIVATED IN ROMANIA
Maria Lidia Popescu, Carol Davila
Abstract
The essential oil from dried leaves, flowers and fruits of Anethum graveolens L. (dill) cultivated in Romania was isolated by hydrodistillation and analysed by gaschromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The main components in leaves were α- phellandrene (62.71%), limonene (13.28%) and anethofuran (16.42%). The main components in flowers were α- phellandrene (30.26%), limonene (33.22%) and anethofuran (22%). Cis-carvone and limonene are the major constituents of seeds volatile oil with 75.2% and, respectively 21.56%. Rezumat Uleiul volatil obţinut din frunze, flori si fructe uscate de Anethum graveolens L. (marar) cultivat in România, a fost izolat prin hidrodistilare si analizat prin cromatografie de gaze cuplata cu spectrometrie de masa (GC-MS). Principalii componenţi din frunze au fost α-felandrenul (62,71%), limonenul (13,28%) si anetofuranul (16,42%). Principalii componenţi din flori au fost α-felandrenul (30,26%), limonenul (33,22%) si anetofuranul (22%). Cis-carvona si limonenul sunt principalii compusi din uleiul volatil obţinut din seminţe, reprezentând 75,2% si, respectiv, 21,56%.
