The chemical composition of the essential oils from aerial parts of Bonannia graeca (L.) Halácsy, Opopanax chironium (L.) Kock and from aerial parts and roots of Eryngium maritimum L. was evaluated by GC and GC-MS. ??-Pinene (15.2%) and ??-pinene were recognized as the main constituents of B. graeca, whereas the aerial parts of O. chironium contained mainly the diterpene cembrene and the coumarin angelicin. In both aerial parts and roots of E. maritimum germacrene D (10.4% and 15.9%, respectively) and 2,4,5-trimethylbenzaldehyde (8.3% and 6.7%) were the most abundant components.

Abstract
The chemical composition of the essential oils from aerial parts of Bonannia graeca (L.) Halácsy, Opopanax chironium (L.) Kock and from aerial parts and roots of Eryngium maritimum L. was evaluated by GC and GC-MS. ??-Pinene (15.2%) and ??-pinene were recognized as the main constituents of B. graeca, whereas the aerial parts of O. chironium contained mainly the diterpene cembrene and the coumarin angelicin. In both aerial parts and roots of E. maritimum germacrene D (10.4% and 15.9%, respectively) and 2,4,5-trimethylbenzaldehyde (8.3% and 6.7%) were the most abundant components.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
