Über Ätherische Öle Der Apiaceen (Umbelliferae)

Abstract

The essential oil of herb and fruits from Pastinaca sativa L. was analysed qualitatively and quantitatively by means of GLC, chemical and spectrometric methods.As main components of the essential oil of the herb the terpene hydrocnrbons cis-B and trans-8-ocimene, terpinolene, and trans-P-farnesene were identified besides y-palmitolactone, an up to the present unknown component o f essential oils. Additional minor amounts of several mono-and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, myristicine and a still unknown diterpene alcohol were detected.In the essential oil o f fruits the aliphatic esters butyl-, hexyl-, and decyl butyrate, decyl acetate and the free alcohols hexanol-(1) and decanol-(1) were identified besides oct e n 01-(I), the acetic-butyric-and caproic acid esters respectively, several terpene hydrocarbons and myristicine. Zusammen fassung Das atherische 01 aus Kraut und Friichten von Past i n a ca s a t i v a L. wurde mittels Gaschromatographie in Verbindung mit chemischen und spektrometrischen Methoden qualitativ und quantitativ untersucht. Als Hauptkomponenten des iitherischen Krautols wurden die Terpenkohlenwasserstoffe cis+ und trans-B-Ocimen, Terpinolen, trans-B-Farnesen und y-Palmitolacton, eine bisher in atherischen Olen noch nicht aufgefundene Verbindung, identifiziert. Daneben konnten geringere Mengen verschiedener anderer Mono-und Sesquiterpenkohlenwasserstoffe, sowie Myristicin und ein in seiner Struktur noch unbekannter Diterpenalkohol nachgewiesen werden.

Essential oil composition of Achillea lingulata and A. umbellata

“…Both compounds were identified by comparison of their mass spectra with those from the library database (Wiley) and literature. 18,[19][20][21] Additionally, 1 H-NMR confirmed the structure of borneol.…”

“…Until now, this compound was identified only in the families Bromeliacae and Apiaceae. [19][20][21] The main components identified in the oil of A. umbellata were 1,8-cineol (12.36%), α-and β-thujone (12.15% and 10.44%, respectively) and camphor (18.44%). Other characteristic components were α-pinene (3.09), camphene (2.08%), sabinene (3.95%), γ-terpinene (5.09%), terpineol-4 (3.43%), α-terpineol (1.85%), piperitone (2.22%) and caryophyllene oxide (1.89%).…”

Variation of myristicin content in cultivated parsnip roots (Pastinaca sativa subspecies sativa var hortensis

“…In our previous work we confirmed myristicin as a main component of the essential oil content of the above and underground parts of P. sativa (Kubeczka and Stahl, 1975and Stahl, , 1977. Further investigations (Stahl and Kubeczka, 1979) proved that the myristicin content of the above-ground parts could be used to define two different groups of plants, a high-content type (17.4-44%) and a low-content type 6.9 s%: 17.3 0 myr.…”
