Abstract

In this work, we studied the chemical composition of the essential oil extracted from dried flowers of Anthemis nobilis L. harvested from the region of Fez (Morocco). The extraction of the essential oil was carried out by hydrodistillation. The composition of essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. The results obtained indicate that the extraction yield of the essential oil is 0.33%. Qualitative and qualitative analysis identified 43 constituents representing 88.63% of the essential oil. The major compounds were: En-yn-dicycloether (20.90%), β-Caryophyllene (19.17%) and Aristolene epoxide (7.39 %).
