Abstract

The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the aerial parts of Astragalus schahrudensis Bge. endemic to Iran, was analysed by GC and GC-MS. The volatile oil isolated from the aerial parts oil of A. schahrudensis was dominated with higher amount of benzyl benzoate (54.4 %) alongwith the fifteen components comprising 94.3 % of the total oil detected. In the whole oil, a nonterpene hydrocarbon predominated over monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons.
