Abstract

Essential oils were extracted by HS-SPME method from the fruit of the Crataegus pontica K.Koch collected from the southern regions of Ilam province. Then, to identify chemical compounds, the essential oil was injected into a chromatograph gas device connected to a mass spectrometer (GC-MC). Of the 50 compounds identified in this essential oil, beta-Thujene (17.21%), alpha-pinene (15.40%), 2-Hexenal (12.42%), trans-Caryophyllene (8.76%), beta-Myrcene (7.89%), 1-Pentadecene (5.89%), Sabinene (4.33%) and trans-beta-Farnesene accounted for %3.50 of the major fruit essential oil compounds of C. pontica.

Highlights

  • Essential oils were extracted by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method from the fruit of the Crataegus pontica K.Koch collected from the southern regions of Ilam province

  • Of the 50 compounds identified in this essential oil, beta-Thujene (17.21%), alpha-pinene (15.40%), 2Hexenal (12.42%), trans-Caryophyllene (8.76%), beta-Myrcene (7.89%), 1-Pentadecene (5.89%), Sabinene (4.33%) and trans-beta-Farnesene accounted for %3.50 of the major fruit essential oil compounds of C. pontica

  • The plant essence was extracted by HS-SPME method and the chemical composition of the fruit was identified by GC-MS method

Summary

Introduction

Koch), belonging to the Rosaceae family, is one of the edible fruits It is a 6–10 meters tall tree with young, hairy, thorny branches, leaves 3 to 7 cm long and 2.5 to 6.5 cm wide and bayonet, with short, fluffy petioles [1]. The use of hawthorn in the treatment of diseases and medical disorders dates back to ancient times [1] It has been used as one of the useful medicinal plants for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases [2,3,4]. Isocoercistin, vitoxin, hyperoside and chlorogenic acid are other compounds of hawthorn [8, 9] In this phytochemical study, it was tried to extract essential oils and volatile oils from the dried powder of hawthorn fruit by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME), and its chemical compounds were analyzed using GC-MS technique
