Abstract

The volatile constituents of the oils of Rhabdosciadium oligocarpum (Post ex Boiss.) Hedge et Lamond and Rhabdosciadium microcalycinum Hand.-Mazz. (Umbelliferae) were isolated by hydrodistillation and microdistillation techniques and then analysed by GC and GC-MS. Germacrene D was found to be the main constituent in all the oils obtained.
