Terpene hydrocarbons in Pimpinella anisum L

Terpene hydrocarbons in Pimpinella anisum L

G Burkhardt et al. Pharm Weekbl Sci. .

Abstract

The essential oil of anise (fruits and shoots) was investigated focusing on the composition of the hydrocarbon fraction. Several sesquiterpenes were identified by GC-MS and the relative composition of the fractions was established by GC analysis. gamma-Himachalene and the diterpene neophytadiene were isolated by TLC and column chromatography at low temperatures. Their structures were determined by MS and NMR including 1H-1H correlated COSY and NOE experiments.
