Phytochemical Study of Volatile Oils for the Ocimum basilicum L. and Mentha spicata By Gas Chromatography Technique

Abstract This study emphasized on the identification and detection secondary metabolism compounds different of volatile oils by Gas Chromatography Technique Ocimum basilicum L. Mentha spicata L plant from Labiate (Lamiaceae) family cultivated in Iraq suxhlet apparatus. medicinal importment acquired this to know active compound oil was identified extract aerial parts Mass, The result showed that (80g) O.basilicum M. has produced ( 2.5% 3. 75%) respectively, shown essential 25 had highest concentration Estragole reaching it is percentage (23.46%) followed Cyclohexanol,5-methyl-2-(1methyl ethyl) (14.19%), Then Tetrapentaconate, 1,54-dibromo (8.99%). , contain Isopropyl linoleate (21.83%) Cyclohexanol,5-methyl-2-(1-methyl 13.38%, then Octadecenoic acid (E) with 7.75%). aim compare phytochemical O.
