Abstract

Jashir is the persian name for prangos ferulacea (L.) belonging to the family of Umbelliferae. It is widely distributed all over the mountainous regions of Iran where it is used as a fodder. The fruit oils of P. ferulacea have been the subject of previous study.
In this study, the oils obtained by steam distillation of aerial parts and seed of Prangos ferulacea (L.) were investigated by a combination of GC and GC/MS. More than 30 compounds in the aerial parts oil, and about 20 compounds in the seed oil have been identified. The main constituents of the oil of aerial parts were ß- Pinene (22.9%) and O-3 carene (16.0%), whereas the seed oil comprised mainly B- Pinene(33.0%) and a - Pinene (10.1%).
