Volatile constituents of oriental plane tree (Platanus orientalis L.) leaves

Abstract

Oriental Plane tree is a very monumental, flamboyant and broad-topped tree belonging to the Platanaceae family. Deciduous plane trees, which can reach 55 meters in length and 6 meters in trunk diameter, mostly spread around water and near water. Oriental Plane trees are used in big cities for landscape and aesthetic purposes, and their wood is used for interior furniture. Fabric dye is obtained from branches and roots. Oriental plane tree leaves are collected by the public for natural tea. In this study, leaf volatile constituents of the leaves of the oriental plane tree were determined. Samples were collected from two different points within the borders of Isparta, leaf samples were dried at room temperature, and their volatile constituents were determined by HS-SPME / GC-MS analysis. Analyzes were applied in the local sample of Sütçüler and Yenişarbademli, 43 in the sample. The most active volatile constituents in the volatile constituents of oriental plane tree leaves of Sütçüler region: (21.76%) (E) -2-Hexenal, (8.14%) n-Hexanal, (7.27%) benzaldehyde, Yenişarbademli region the most active volatile constituents of the oriental plane tree leaves: (16.96%) (E) -2-hexenal, (11.75%) n-hexanal, (7.09%) cis-3-hexene-1-ol.
