Abstract

Available at http://www.jphs.ir Open Access The essential oil constituents of the peel and leaf of Citrus aurantiumL. (Rutaceae) grown in the north of Iran, were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Fourteen components representing 99.6% of the leafoil were identified. The major compounds were linalool (39.4%), linalyl acetate (38.8%) and a-terpineol (7.2%). Twenty constituents consisting 99.4% of the peeloil were identified. The main components were limonene (91.3%), b-myrcene (3.0%) and linalool (1.1%).
