The essential oil components of musa sage (Salvia tigrina Hedge & Hub.-Mor.)

Abstract

There are more than 100 species of Salvia genus distributed in the flora of Turkey, and 58 of them are endemic. 24 Salvia species are distributed in Hatay flora and 5 of them are endemic. Salvia tigrina Hedge & Hub.-Mor., named Musa Sage, because it is found in the Musa mountain in Hatay, is a species that attracts attention with its red-spotted flowers on yellow. In the study, which was the first study on the essential oil of Musa sage (S. tigrina Hedge & Hub.-Mor.), the essential oil components of leaf samples of plants collected from Musa Mountain were determined. Plant samples were dried and then hydrodistilled with neo-clevenger aparatus. Since the plant contained essential oil very low levels, hexane was used as solvent in the obtaining essential oil. As a result of the GCMS analysis 38 different compounds (98,64%) were analyzed in the essential oil of Musa sage (S. tigrina Hedge & Hub.-Mor.). The main compound of species was characterized by a high content of α-humulene (C15H24) with 17.52%, followed by 2,5,9-Trimethylcycloundeca-4,8-dienone (C14H22O), α-cadinol with 6,68% and α-cedrene with 5,92% respectively.
