Highlights
The genus Bupleurum is a very common wild growing perennial and 150 species of those originate from Euro-Asia[1]
The aerial parts of the B.sibiricum Vest were collected from Zuunharaa of the Selenge aimag, B.multinerve DC and B. scorzonerifolium Willd were collected from Terelj, Hentii mountains in Mongolia
The essential oil of B.sibiricum was rich in a high percentage of oxygenated sesquiterpenes
Summary
The genus Bupleurum is a very common wild growing perennial and 150 species of those originate from Euro-Asia[1]. In Mongolian traditional therapy, the aerial parts of Bupleurum species are used in some cardiovascular diseases, in addition to infectious diseases[4]. A literature search is revealed many references of previous work those are on the essential oils of Bupleurum species[6-8]. Volatile components of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium and Bupleurum sibiricum from the Mongolian flora have been investigated[9,10] previously, while there is no report on the volatile constituents of the aerial parts of Bupleurum multinerve. The aerial parts of the B.sibiricum Vest were collected from Zuunharaa of the Selenge aimag, B.multinerve DC and B. scorzonerifolium Willd were collected from Terelj, Hentii mountains in Mongolia. About 15 mg of essential oils of these 3 plants, which were dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, were dissolved in 1 ml of CH3OH and subjected to gas chromatography (GC). The identification of constituents was established by comparison to retention times and MS spectra with those reported in the literature[12]
