Abstract
To search for the new development of industrial application, chemical analysis of volatile constituents from native Schizandra chinensis was conducted by GC and GC/MS spectrometric analyses. The chemical composition of the volatile constituents from S. chinensis was confirmed by the aid of Wiley/NBS Library and RI indice searches. The major constituents were α-pinene (7.46%), β-pinene (30.66%), 1,8-cineole (4.81%), and 4-methyl-1-(1-methylethyl)-3-cyclohexene-1-ol (7.90%) from the stems, and camphene (10.05%), β-pinene (17.67%), sabinene (4.02%), l-limonene (4.04%), 1-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)benzene (4.97%), linalyl acetate (7.86%), and linalool oxide (4.84%) from the roots. Among them, β-pinene is a major constituent in the stems and roots of native S. chinensis that presented possibilities for industrial applications.
