GC MS AND ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS OF CINNAMOMUM TAMALA

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the phytoconstituents and elements present in hexane (HEX), dichloromethane (DCM) and methanol (MET) extracts of Cinnamomum tamala (CT).Methods: Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was carried out to determine the principal constituents present in HEX, DCM and MET extracts of CT. Elemental analysis of CT was carried out by X–Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectrophotometer analysis.Results: GC-MS analysis showed the presence of various compounds in HEX, DCM and MET extracts of CT. Eugenol was found to be the major compound in HEX and DCM extracts of CT. 2 compounds namely 2,6,10-trimethyl-12-oxatricyclo[7.3.0.0{1,6}]tridec-2-ene, Hexahydropyridine,4-[4,5-dimethoxyphenyl]-in HEX extract and 3 compounds in DCM extract namely 6á,19-CycloAndrost-4-ene-3,17-dione, 2,5-chloro-3β-hydroxy-6β-nitro-5α-androstan-17-one, Aceticacid,10,13-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3,4,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17-tetradecahydro-1H cyclopenta [a]phenanthren-17-ylester are newly reported. XRF analysis revealed the presence of various elements in CT. Out of these; calcium and potassium were found to be major elements, whereas titanium was found to be a minor element.Conclusions: The results of the present study demonstrate the presence of 31 various important phytoconstituents in HEX, DCM and MET extracts of CT and presence of 13 elements in CT.
