Chemical Investigation On The Essential Oil Of Artemisia Schimperi

A study of the essential oil of Artemisia schimperi was undertaken. The volatilernconstituents of the aerial parts of Artemisia schimperi have been examined by GC, 1HNMRrnand 13C-NMR and 18 components comprising 87.4% of the oil have been identifiedrnby GC using Kovat’s index and in some cases by comparison with standard samples. Thernoil contained as main components: p-cymene 19.6%, Artemisyl acetate, 12.7%, Geranialrn10.5%, Artemisia alcohol 9.2%, and Limonene 6.6%. The oxygenated compoundsrnconstitute 63.6% of the oil. One compound was isolated and the structure was elucidatedrnbased on spectroscopic technique and by comparison of the data with the reported in thernliterature.
