Zusammenfassung:The essential oils of the flowers, leaves and stems of Anthemis altissima growing wild in Iran were separately obtained by hydrodistillation and analysed by GC–MS. A total of 123 components were identified in the essential oils of the investigated organs. The main components of the flower and leaf essential oils were β‐caryophyllene (25.3% and 17.2%), caryophyllene‐oxide (6.5% and 9.6%) and spathulenol (5.4% and 17.4%), respectively. Non‐terpenic compounds were the main components of the stem oil. Palmitic acid (39.6%) and linoleic acid (36.2%) constituted the main compounds of the stem oil.
