| Résumé : |
The investigation of the essential oils of the aerial part and rhizomes of Kyllinga erecta by capillary gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) led to the identification of 31 and 49 compounds respectively.
The oil of the aerial parts had 1,8-cineole (10.5%), α-humulene (21.7%), farnesyl acetate (11.2%), β-caryophyllene (9.9%) and selin-11-en-4-ol (8.9%) as the major components, while the rhizome oil was dominated by 1,8-cineole (12.7%) and cyperene (11.34%) and E,E-farnesol (5.5%). This analyses, especially that of the rhizome oil, suggest another chemotype of K. erecta from the known predominant cyperene-type. |
