A ‘Low‐Level’ Chemotaxonomic Analysis of the Plant Family Apiaceae: The Case of Scandix balansaeReut. ex Boiss. (Tribe Scandiceae)

Abstract: Analyses by GC and GC/MS of an essential-oil sample obtained from dry fruits of Scandix balansae Reut. ex Boiss. allowed the identification of 81 components, comprising 91.4% of the total oil composition. Interestingly, the major identified volatile compounds were medium-chain-length n-alkanes, i.e., tridecane (6.7%), pentadecane (13.4%), and heptadecane (19.3%), and a long-chain homolog nonacosane (7.6%). A number of minor oil constituents, among them tetradecyl 3-methylbutanoate, and octadecyl 2-methylpropan… Show more

“…Except for tridecyl and octadecyl 2-methylpropanoates, and tetradecyl, hexadecyl and octadecyl 3-methylbutanoates, and all 2-methylbutanoates from Table 2, all other esters were for the first time found to be secondary plant metabolites. All of the synthesized esters, with the exception of tetradecyl and octadecyl 3-methylbutanoates and octadecyl 2-methylpropanoate described in a previous report, [3] were fully spectrally characterized ( 1 H-and 13 …”

“…Other relatively intense peaks (at m/z 101, 85, 57 and 43) were in general agreement with the fragmentation pattern known for pentanoates (Figure 1a). [15] The mass spectral data of the compounds belonging to another series of the oil constituents were characterized by the base peak at m/z 43 [C 3 + ] that could be connected to the presence of butanoic or 2-methylpropanoic acids in these molecules (Figure 1b).…”
