“…Plants collected from south Iran (Shiraz) displayed 1,8cineol (34%) as the main essential oil component and contained very little camphor [30]. Santolina alcohol, αthujone and cis-chrysanthenol were found as minor compounds, which could not be detected in the plants from the present study.…”

Cineole (27-41%) was the main compound in the oils from A. millefolium and A. biebersteinii. These two species reached the highest amount of volatile compounds at the full blooming stage. α-Thujone was the main compound in A. nobilis oil (25-64%). Fully blooming plants of this species also had a high proportion of artemisia ketone (up to 40%) in the oil. The main oil compounds of A. eriophora were camphor (about 35%) and 1,8-cineol (about 30%). This species produces only a small number of flower heads and the composition of the essential oil did not change during development.

“…Among Iranian species of Achillea (Table 1), A. eriophora, A. millefolium and A. tenuifolia contained 1,8-cineole and α-pinene and β-pinene as their major aroma components. Weyerstahl et al [9] analyzed A. eriophora collected from Pars Province in Iran and confirmed the same major components in its essential oil fraction. Another investigator [14] reported that camphor was the major volatile compound in the water distillate of flowers of A. tenuifolia which were collected north of Tehran.…”

“…Many species of Achillea have been analyzed for their bioactives with more than 100 components found, including volatiles (mono-and sesquiterpenes or their lactones) in headspace vapor or essential oils and highermolecular-weight phenolics or flavonoids from the extracts ( [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]). …”

Dried flowers and leaves of four different Achillea species grown wild in several provinces of Iran, including one species collected from three different locations of Isfahan province were analyzed for the headspace volatile components, total phenolics (TP) and tartaric esters (TE). Capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) combined with a purge and trap method was used for quantification of aroma components. Over 70 compounds were determined in the samples. Flower samples from all species contained 2-methyl butanal, alpha-pinene, alpha-thujene, camphene, hexanal, beta-pinene and 1,8-cineole; however, the major constituents of the aerial parts were determined as alpha-pinene, camphene, DL-limonene and 1,8-cineole. The largest number of aroma components were found in Achillea tenuifolia Lam. and Achillea millefolium L. In all species, except A. millefolium, the leaves contained more TP and TE than flowers. However, A. wilhelmsii from Semirom in Isfahan province showed the highest values for TP and TE.

“…One of these identifications was tentative (RI = 1679.4 banca et al, 2004;Stojanović et al, 2005). The high amount of 1,8-cineole (34.2%) has been reported A. eriophora (Weyerstahl et al, 1997). The high amount of sabinene, as we found in our populations 36, 38 and 39 (19.3-35.7%), has been also previously reported (Verma et al, 2017;Nadim et al, 2011;Conti et al, 2010;Boskovic et al, 2005).…”
