Abstract

The volatile constituents of Anthemis coelopoda Boiss. were isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. In this study samples were collected from Gilan province in Rodbar on late May 2003. According to literature, this species was not the subject of research up to now and therefore its chemical composition is not well known. The major constituents of A. coelopoda Boiss. flower oil were Cis-chrysanthenyl acetate (27.3%), hexyl butanoate (16%), and myrcene (7%), while the leaf oil contained isobornyl formate (30.6%), Trans-ethyl chrysanthemumate (15%) and p-mentha-1,5-diene-8-ol (13.7.4%).
