Abstract
The natural active compounds in Oregano essential oils are extremely beneficial for human health and when used as a drug for treatment. In this study, we have examined the two main Oregano essential oils Thymol and Carvacrol. These oils have many functions; predominantly, in biochemical reactions in metabolism. In our research, we theoretically investigated the chemical activities of Carvacrol and Thymol by using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) method in the gas, water, and blood phases. The point at which ethanol was used as a solvent was important to the study outcome; hence, in this study; the researchers determined the effective rate of Carvacrol with ethanol to explain the interaction mechanism.
