Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze the volatile oil from Bupleurum chinense DC. f. vanheurckii (Muell.-Arg.) Shan et Y.Li. The volatile oil was extracted from B. chinense DC. f. vanheurckii (Muell.-Arg.) Shan et Y.Li  by steam distillation, its components was analyzed and identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method. 27 compounds, which represent 93.3% of total oil, were identified. Predominant constituents over 5% were 4,7,10,13,16,19-Docosahexaenoic acid, methylester, (all-Z) - (19.1%); Germacrene D (14.8%); Retinyl acetate(7.3%); Cycloisolongifolene,8,9-dehydro-9-formyl-(6.9%); α-Cadinol(5.6%); and τ-Muurolo (5.3%).

 

Key words: Bupleurum chinense DC. f. vanheurckii (Muell.-Arg.) Shan et Y.Li, volatile oil, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis.
