Aydın/Türkiye’de Yetişen Vitex agnus-castus (Verbenaceae) Meyve Uçucu Yağlarının Kimyasal Bileşiminin Değerlendirilmesi

Bu çalışmada Aydın ekolojik koşulları altında yetiştirilen Vitex agnus-castus meyvelerinin uçucu yağlarının kimyasal bileşim tayini Ekstraksiyon Clevenger cihazı ile gerçekleştirildi ve uçucu yağ bileşimi, Gaz Kromatografisi-Kütle Spektrometresi (GC-MS) ile belirlendi. Sonuç olarak, Vitex agnus-castus meyvelerinde toplam 157 bileşen tespit edildi. Bunların arasında 1,8 sineol (% 8.24), propenamid (% 6.07), karyofillen (5.56%), bisiklogermakren (% 5.51), sabinen (% 5.37), maleimid (% 5.28), trans-β-farnesen (% 4.45) ve -pinen (%3.98) ana bileşenler olarak bulundu.

Evaluation of Chemical Composition of Vitex agnus-castus (Verbenaceae) Fruits Essential Oils Grown in Aydın/Turkey

In this study was aimed to investigate the chemical composition determination of essential oils of Vitex agnus-castus fruits growing under the ecological conditions of Aydın’s. The essential oil was carried out with Clevenger apparatus and composition was determined by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). As a result, a total of 157 components were detected in V. agnus-castus fruits. Among them, 1,8 cineole (8.24%), propenamide (6.07%), caryophyllene (5.56%), bicyclogermacrene (5.51%), sabinene (5.37%), maleimide (5.28%), trans-β-farnesene (4.45%), and -pinene (3.98%) were found as the major components.
