Chromate-mass spectrometric research of the Agrimonia eupatoria L.volatile substances
Abstract
Agrimonia Eupatoria L. has been used in medicine for a long time. Biologically active substances of a plant are flavonoids, tannins, saponins, coumarins, polysaccharids, amino acids, organic acids and essential oil. The volatiles substances Agrimonia Eupatoria L. has never been inspected, that’s why it became the goal of our work.
For the first time it has been defined with the method of gas chromate-mass spectrometry the component composition of essential oil of Agrimonia eupatoria L. flowers, leaves, stems and fruits. According to the conducted research it was found and identified 70 and 49 compounds in the leaves; 45 and 41 – in the flowers, 62 and 49 – in the fruit, 62 and 50 – in the stems respectively.
Among the identified compounds make the largest share of sesquiterpene β-caryophyllene and its derivative cariofilenoxide, monocyclic sesquiterpene – humulene and acyclic sesquiterpene – β-farnesene. All parts of the plant are present monoterpene linalool, sesquiterpenes – nerolidol, σ-cadinene, γ-cadinene. Beside of mono- and sesquiterpenes it was found fatty acids, aliphatic aldehydes, alcohols, etc.
