Title: Chemical study of the essential oil of Cyperus rotundus
Abstract: Minor constituents of the essential oil of Cyperus rotundus have been investigated. The three new sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (−)-isorotundene, (−)-cypera-2,4(15)-diene, (−)-norrotundene and the ketone (+)-cyperadione were isolated and their structures elucidated. The absolute configuration of (−)-rotundene was derived by chemical correlation and enantioselective gas chromatography.
