The volatile components of the aerial parts of Acalypha rhomboidea Raf. (Euphorbiaceae)
American Journal of Essential Oils and Natural Products · 2019 · Vol. 7(3) · pp. 27–30
Abstract
The essential oils from the aerial parts of Acalypha rhomboidea, growing wild in north Alabama, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. The essential oils were dominated by green leaf volatiles, mainly (2E)-hexenal (52.7-53.2%), (3Z)-hexenol (7.6-12.3%), and hexanal (5.3-5.8%). In addition, the diterpenoid phytol (11.3-15.1%) was also abundant in the essential oils.
