Abstract
Volatile components of Zinchoge flowers were identified. Zinchoge flowers were extracted with pentane. The odor of the pentane extract was very similar to that of the Zinchoge flower. This extract was then fractionated into four fractions by distillation, and two of them were further separated by column chromatography into five fractions, respectively. These fractions were analyzed by gas chromatography and combined gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy.
One hundred and forty-five compounds, including 30 hydrocarbons, 39 esters, 20 aldehydes, 8 ketones, 21 alcohols, 7 phenols, 10 acids and 10 miscellaneous compounds, were identified. One hundred and nineteen of these compounds were newly identified as volatile components of Zinchoge flowers.
