Yield and chemical composition of the essential oil of the stems and rhizomes of Cyperus articulatus L. cultivated in the state of Para, Brazil

The volatile constituents from the stems and rhizomes of Cyperus articulatus, cultivated in the state of Para, Brazil, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major components of these oils were alpha-pinene (0.7-12.9%), mustakone (7.3-14.5%) and caryophyllene oxide (4.6...

Zusammenfassung:	The volatile constituents from the stems and rhizomes of Cyperus articulatus, cultivated in the state of Para, Brazil, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major components of these oils were alpha-pinene (0.7-12.9%), mustakone (7.3-14.5%) and caryophyllene oxide (4.6-28.5%). Maximum yield in essential oil was furnished by the rhizomes hydrodistilled at 5 h.
