CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF ESSENTIAL OIL FROM LEAVES AND FLOWERS OF INULA VISCOSA (L.) IN AL-QADMOUS REGION, SYRIA
AbstractLeaves and flowers of Inula viscosa (L.) were collected from fields in Al-Qadmous, Syria. Essential oil was isolated by classical method of hydro distillation using the Clevenger-type apparatus. Its chemical composition was analyzed by GC/MS. The analysis led to the identification of48 and 43 components in flowers and leaves, respectively. Essential oils were characterized by a high content of oxygenated sesquiterpenes (53.85% and 54.29%, respectively), with E-Foreseen Epoxide (22.41 % and 16.55%, respectively) and Nerolidol B (15.70% and 13.64%, respectively), as the main components.
