“…The essential oils from the genus Ruta are known for having two methyl-2-ketones (2-nonanone and 2-undecanone) in their chemical profile; reaching 80% of the oil composition (Haddouchi et al, 2013), which is consistent with our results (81.8%). Similarly, the ketone-type compounds identified as main constituents in our study were consistent with those reported by other authors in other species from the same genus (Dob et al, 2008;Da Silva et al, 2014), indicating that the presence of 2-undecanone does not changed with respect to the geographical area where plant grows, but its proportions vary, ranging from 28.2% to 67.8%. The proportions of 2-nonanone range from 5.2% to 53.1%.…”

“…Steam distillation usually produces yields less than 1% (Regnault-Roger et al, 2012). Our essential oil yield was 0.3% (v/w), which is in line with a report by Dob et al (2008) been associated with the early growth period in a plant or with senescence (Sangwan et al, 2001). Our plant sample could have been extracted during a period of low accumulation of oil, which would explain the observed differences.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the repellent effect of the essential oil of the rue (Ruta chalepensis) against the weevil Aegorhinus superciliosus, an important pest of fruit crops in Chile. Rue essential oil was obtained by steam distillation, and its components were identified by GC-MS. Their effect on adult A. superciliosus insects was evaluated using four-arm olfactometric bioassays. The extraction process had a yield of 0.3% on a dry weight basis, and a chromatographic analysis showed the presence of nine compounds, which represented 89.3% of the total components. The major compounds were 2-nonanone (41.7%) and 2-undecanone (40.1%). Behavioral bioassays showed that the rue essential oil elicited a repellent effect against male and female A. superciliosus (p ≤ 0.05) at a concentration of 1.92 x 10 7 ng/cm 2. However, at a lower concentration of the oil (285.7 ng/cm 2), only females were repelled (p ≤ 0.05). The repellency observed against A. superciliosus could be attributed to high concentrations of both ketones, suggesting that rue essential oil can be considered as a potential repellent that could reduce the infestation of this weevil. The role of the compounds identified and the repellent activity of this evergreen shrub are discussed.

“…In general, the composition assessed in this study is in accord with previous reports on R. chalepensis (Dob et al ., ; Bnina et al ., ; Tounsi et al ., ; Fakhfakh et al ., ), being the aliphatic ketones 2‐nonanone and 2‐undecanone major compounds.…”

“…Ruta chalepensis subsp. angustifolia from Algeria was reported as having a consistent amount of 2-methyloctyl-and 2-methyldecyl acetate, beyond the two predominant aliphatic ketones (Dob et al, 2008). Interestingly, many sulphur-containing compounds in dichloromethane extracts from R. chalepensis harvested in Tuscany (Italy) were detected (Escher et al, 2006).…”

“…Ruta graveolens (Rutaceae) is an herbaceous species distributed across tropical and temperate areas of the world including South America and Southern Europe and is considered native to the Mediterranean region [1,2]. The plant, with its bitter taste and strong odor, has historical uses in folk medicine of different civilizations [3,4], for example, for the control of menstrual disorders, headache and earache, cramps, and skin inflammation [5]. The leaves contain essential oil (EO) and active ingredients, such as phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and saponins [5].…”

Elevated Bioactivity of Ruta graveolens against Cancer Cells and Microbes Using Seaweeds

Human cancer and pathogenic microbes cause a significant number of deaths every year. Modulating current sources of natural products that control such diseases becomes essential. Natural algae, such as Ascophyllum nodosum and Ecklonia maxima, can modulate the metabolic processes as well the bioactivities of Ruta graveolens L. The R. graveolens plants were subjected to nine soil drenches of A. nodosum (7 mL L−1), E. maxima (7 mL L−1), or both extracts. Morphological performance, gas exchange parameters, and essential oils (EOs) composition (GC-MS) were studied and the bioactivity was assessed against several cancer cells and pathogenic bacteria or fungi. Treatment with A. nodosum + E. maxima seaweed extracts (SWE) led to the highest morphological performance and gas exchange parameters. The highest antiproliferative, apoptotic, and caspase-3/7 activities of EO were against HeLa in SWE mixture treated plants. The best EO antimicrobial activities were obtained against Staphylococcus aureus and Penicillium ochrochloron. SWE mixtures treated plants showed the best bioactivities against microbes and cancer cells. The highest abundance of 2-undecanone (62%) and 2-nonanone (18%) was found in plants treated with SWE mixtures and caused the best anticancer and antimicrobial effects. Seaweed mixtures act as natural elicitors of pharmaceutical industries and favored 2-undecanone and 2-nonanone in R. graveolens.
