Abstract

The volatile organic compounds of Asparagus racemosus, Bergenia ciliate and Terminalia chebula were isolated by simultaneous distillation–extraction (SDE) technique and then analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 55, 48 and 56 compounds were identified from and compounds camphor, borneol, capric acid, furfural, myrtanal, α-pinene, α-terpeniol, perillaldehyde, 2-carene, butyrophenones, furfural, β-caryophyllene, 2-nitropropane were detected as a bioactive compounds with various proportions among the studied plants.
