Chemical composition of the essential oil from the aerial parts of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium growing in Nepal

Abstract

The essential oil from aerial parts of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium growing in Nepal was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The oil contained 74 different compounds among which camphor (11.0%), chrysanthenone (7.6%), α-cadinol (4.8%), γ-muurolene (4.6%) and cis-chrysanthenol (4.4%) were the major ones. These major constituents of the oil were different from the flower essential oil of the same plant from Northern India.
