ABSTRACT
The essential oil from the leaves of Lantana aculeate was analysed by GLC The major constituents found were caryophyllene-18 89%, a-terpineal- 7.12%, bornyl acetate-10.50% and a-bornyl 7.20%
Key Words: Lantana aculeata, Essential oil, verbanaceae
Plant Name: Lantana aculeate (N.O. verbanaceae)
Source:
The plant part (leaves) was collected from Patharia Hills, Sagar in September 96 and a then dictated by Department of Botany. Dr. Hari Singh Gour University, Sagar M.P India
Plant Part:
Leaves steam distillation produced oil 0.15% yield
Previous Work:
The morphological characters of Lantana aculeata have been described in various publications Previously many essential oils were identified from the leaves of Lantana aculeata, of which major once were sesquiterpene, l-a- pheilandrene, caryophyllene small aldehydes and alcohol.
Present Work:
The leaves of Lantana aculeata were found to consist of following constituents by GLC analysis and their structure confirmed by its IR spectroscopy The confirmation about identification of the constituents was done by CO-GLC analysis as well as by comparison of the retention time. The constituents identified in the oil were as follows:
| Compound | Percentage (%) |
| α-Pinene | 2.24 |
| Limonene | 4.25 |
| α-Thujene | 9.40 |
| β-Pinene | 4.12 |
| d-Cadinene | 2.05 |
| α-Terpineol | 7.12 |
| Bornyl Acetate | 10.50 |
| α-Bornyl | 7.20 |
| Caryophyllene | 11.62 |
| Terpenyl Acetate | 4.20 |
| Myrcene | 2.50 |
| Camphene | 4.20 |
| Unidentified | 0.73 |
| Methyl Chavicol | 3.00 |
| Eugenol | 5.82 |
| d-α-Phellandrene | 18.89 |
