“…Examples of these compounds are artemisia ketone, santolinatriene, and chrysanthemol (Baser and Demirci 2007). Other irregular monoterpenes namely necrodane derivatives also occur primarily in Lavandula luisieri oils (Zuzarte et al 2012a). …”

The aim of present study was to evaluation the antioxidant potential of Lavandula officinalis on the basis of the chemical compositions of oils obtained by hydrodistillation. In the case of L.officinalis, thirteen compounds were identified representing the 96.53% of the total oil. The major constituents of the oil were described as α-pinene (20.14%), camphor (14.36%), menthol (32.51%) and 1,8-cineole (20.14%). The oils were also subjected to screening for their possible antioxidant activity by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays. %). 1,8-Cineole and menthol showed appreciable antioxidant activity in DPPH test. Antioxidant activity guided fractionation of the oil was carried out by The TLC-bioautography screening and fractionation resulted in the separation of the main antioxidant compound which were identified as 1,8-cineole (48%) and menthol (39%).

“…extracts, all the extracts displayed an inhibition percentage in the same range observed with the BHT for a concentration of 40 lM. This apparent discrepancy on lower phenolic and flavonoids content, as well as the high percentage of radical inhibition in essential oils of both extracts, may be attributed to the linalool and linalyl acetate compound presence on these extracts [28]. According with the results obtained for the antioxidant activity and phenolic and flavonoids content, the both methanol extracts were selected for encapsulation.…”
