Abstract

The chemical constituents of volatile oil from the artificial and wild Houttuynia cordata Thunb are analyzed.The volatile oil was isolated with steam distillation and identified by capillary GC/MS method,52 and 70 Volatile components were identified and determined from the artificial and wild Houttuynia cordata Thunb,accounting for 97.71% and 94.94% of the total peak area.The main volatile compounds are β-pinene,β-myrcene,2-undecanone,sabinen,α-pinene,limonene,capric acid ethyl ester,bornyl acetate and etc.The result shows that there were differences between the volatile chemical constituents in the artificial and wild Houttuynia cordata Thunb.However,the main effective constituents are basically identical.
