Analysis of Codariocalyx motorius by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy

Objective:To analyze the main chemical constituents of the essential oil from Codariocalyx motorius. Methods:The essential oil was extracted from Codariocalyx motorius by microwave extraction.The components of the essential oil were separated and identified by GC-MS.The relative content of each component was determined by area normalization.Results:70 peaks were separated and 42 of them were identified, representing about 89.03% of the total content. Conclusions:The main chemical constituents of the essential oil from Codariocalyx motorius were m-bis ( m-phenoxyphenoxy) benzene ( 37.70%) , fitone ( 6.60%) , Palmitic acid ( 21.61%) and n-docosane ( 6.73%) .
