Abstract

Scaligeria (Apiaceae) is represented in Iran by seven species, which is located in natural habitat. In this Research the fruits and leaves of Scaligeria assyriaca Freyn & Bornm. were collected from Khorasan province.The oil constituents from fruits and leaves of this plant have been studied by GC and GC/MS. The major constituents in leaf oil were found to be germacrene D (21.1%), β-caryophyllene (13.4%) and α-copaene (10.2%). In the fruit oil the main components were myristicin (24.3%), germacrene D (13.7%) and elemicin (11%). β-Sesquiphellandrene and kessanwere identified ranging (10% and 8.7%) and (7.4% and 9.5%) in leaf and fruit oils, respectively.
