Extraction and Identification of Volatile Compounds in Rosa laxa Retz var harputense T. Baytop "Kişmiri rose"

Abstract

The gardening of ornamental plants comes back to ancient times (Urartians). Nowadays the gardening of ornamental plants is done worldwide as in the Van provinces of Türkiye. Old and traditional gardens can be seen in different regions of this province naturally. Among these plants, Rosa laxa Retzius var. harputense T. Baytop (Kişmiri rose), is an exotic plant coming from Central Asia. Kişmiri rose has semi-double and miniature flowers and blooms for about five months in the ecological conditions of Van. It has not only highly decorative but also has a light, pleasant, and enthusiastic fragrance. As far as we know there is no previously published on the volatile profile of Rosa laxa Retz var. harputense (Kişmiri rose). For this purpose, in this study, "Headspace Solid Phase Micro Extraction Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry" (HS/SPME/GC/MS) was applied for the detection of volatile compounds of Kişmiri rose flowers. A total of 31 compounds of Kişmiri rose were identified and quantified using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). Among these identified compounds, phenyl ethyl alcohol (26.59%), cis-3-hexenyl acetate (18.573%) was detected as the major ones. According to the obtained results, it is concluded that our species has also a Chinese origin.

Profile of Secondary Metabolites in Different Part of the Butterfly Pea (Clitoria ternatea) Plant with Antioxidant Activity

“…Hexane takes up non-polar compounds found in plants well because of its polarity (Ghazali and Yasin, 2016). Identify secondary metabolites using compound separation tools such as Gas Chromatograph -Mass Spectrophotometer (GC-MS) (Alp et al 2022). In research by Neda et al (2013), water and methanol extracts of butterfly pea flowers were identified as having the main compound, inositol, which is effectively used as an anticancer against several types of cancer.…”
