Abstract

The genus Cachrys L., included within the Apiaceae family, has a wide geographical distribution. It has a fairly complex nomenclatural history as it is shared with two other genera: Hippomarathrum Link non P.G. Gaertn., B. Mey. & Scherb., and Prangos Lindl. Cachrys pungens Jan ex Guss. is a perennial plant growing primarily in the temperate biome. The native range of this species is S. Italy, Sicily and NW. Africa. In the present study the chemical composition of the essential oil from aerial parts of this plant, never previously investigated, was evaluated by GC-MS. The essential oil (Cp) was characterised by large amounts of monoterpene hydrocarbons (67.51%) being β-cis-ocimene (13.55%), sabinene (12.57%) and γ-terpinene (10.56%) the main constituents. A comparison with all the other studied essential oils of genus Cachrys is discussed. Furthermore, a review of the use of the Cachrys species in the popular medicine has been carried out.

期刊介绍： The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds. The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal. Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section. All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
