To compare the differences of the volatile oil components of Pimpinella thellungiana Wolff extracted with different methods by GC-MS combined with retention index.
Volatile oil of Pimpinella thellungiana Wolff were extracted using steam distillation, salting-out assisted steam distillation and enzymatic hydrolysis-assisted steam distillation. The chemical components of volatile oil extracted by different methods were analyzed by GC-MS combined with retention index, while the relative contents of volatile oil components were calculated by peak area normalization method.
Among the three extraction methods, the extraction rate of volatile oil was as follows, enzymatic hydrolysis-assisted steam distillation > salting-out assisted steam distillation ≈ steam distillation method. The most comprehensive types of volatile oil were extracted by salting-out assisted steam distillation, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis-assisted steam distillation, and finally by steam distillation. The main types of the volatile oil components of Pimpinella thellungiana Wolff extracted with different methods were basically unchanged, but the relative contents of various compounds were different. A total of 47 compounds were identified from the volatile oil extracted with the three methods, including 35 common compounds. The main chemical structural types of these compounds were terpenes, terpenes, terpenoids, aromatics and aliphatics, among which the higher content compounds were β-bisabolene(17.25%-19.42%), caryophyllene oxide (12.90%-15.70%), 1-(3-methyl-2-butenoxy)-4-(1-propenyl) benzene (5.02%-9.36%) and β-pinene (5.31%-6.62%).
The chemical composition types and relative contents of the volatile oil of Pimpinella thellungiana Wolff extracted with different methods are different, but the differences are not significant. The results can provide reference for the selection of suitable extraction methods and further utilization of volatile oil from Pimpinella thellungiana Wolff.
