المستخلص This investigation was carried out to study the essential oils of petitgrain, neroli, and bitter orange absolute. Results obtained revealed the followiag: 1- Yield of petitgrain oil increased at progressive age of leaves, where the yield of juvenile leaves was the lowest (0.13 percent), while those more than 30 days age gave the highest percent of 011. 2- Storage of bitter orange leaves in the open air, increased the pe;rcentage’of oil, and reduced their water content. Storage for 4 days g~ve higher, percentage of oil than that of fresh leaves or stored leaves for 2 and 7 days. 3- The presence of setting fruits In the tWigs during distillation affected the oil percentage. The percentage of oil increased with increase of setting fruits on the twigs. 4- The petitgrain oil percent varied from month to another, where the lower percent was obtained in March and the . higher Was obtained in september. 5- The physical and chemical characteristics of petitgrain oil are within the limits of those reported·in the literature. 6- The quality of petitgrain oil decreasEd by storing the oil at room temperature for 12 months more than that stored at +5°C, while storage of oil at -15°C kept the oil in satisfactory quality. 7- The odor quality of petitgrain oil was affected by storage for 12 months at different temperatures. The odor qua1it\ decreased greatly at room temperature than those -’, at or cd at ’Joe, while oils s t or ed at -15oe showed less decreuse in the odor. 8- The physico-chemical properties of the better orange leaves concrete and its absolute were different from those reported in the literuture. 9- The ultraviolet and infrared spectra of petitgrain oil, nerali oil and bitter orange a.bsolute could be taken as a t r-u Ly characteristic Uringer-printa” of such oils. Bes i.des , iqiE’rared spe ct ro scopy might be used as a. guide for thE qualitative analysis of thEse oils. 10- Storage of petitgrain, n2rali oils and bitter orange absolu tea t room temperature for one year afff;cted it s ultraviolet properties and infrared absorption. properties. 11- The identified compounds of petitgrain oil obtained by gas liquid chromutography included hydrocarbon, alcohols and esters. The principal coostituents were 11nalyl acetate;4J.52%) lin81001 (28.54%) and 1imonene CS.14;j). 12- The chemical composition of petitgrain oil was affected by storage for one year at different temperaturee. There -145 - were significant differences in the hydrocarbon terpenes for ojls stored at room temperature and at +5°C. Meanwhile no signi.ficant differences in these terpanes were observed in oil stored at -150C. 13. The chemical composition of petitgrain oil was affected by leaves age as well 8S the period between harvesting of leaves and distillation, presence of fruits in the leaves and harvesting time. 14. The flowers collected early in t be morning gave higher yield of oil than those gathered in the afternoon. The small buds gave higher yield of oil t han other flowers stages while the closed buds gave the lower yield of oil. Also, the period between hary.esting And distillation of flowers affected the oil yield. Fresh picked flowers gave higher yield than those distilled after 7 hours, While, flowers distilled after 24 hours gave higber yield than fresh flowers. Further~more, soaking of flowers in water before distillation increased the oil yield. Frechpicked flowers gave 0.19 percent while those soaked for 12 and 24 hours gave 0.21 and 0.22 percent respectively. 15- The physical properties of neroli oil are Within the limit s of t hose rep.~orted in t he literatures while the ” chemical ones differed from those reported in the literature. The acid value, ester value and free alcohol content were lower, While ester value after acetylation and ester content were higher than those reported in the literature. 16- The quality of neroli oil d~cr=~sed by storing the oil. The specific grav i t y, refractive index, evaporation residue, acid value and alcohol content increased after storage for one year while solubility in alcohol, ester va.lue and ester content decreased. 17- Benzol gave the highest percent of concrete and absolute of bitter orange flower while hexane gave the lowest value of concrete. The lowest value of absolute was obtained by the mixture of solvents. (Hexane, benzol and et hyl ac eta t e ). \. 18- Flowers picked in the early morning gave higher yield than those picked in the afternoon. The average increase was 6.36 and 9.37 percent respectively. Proper stage of flowers affected yield of concrete and absolute. The completely opened flowers gave higher yield of concrete and absolute. while closed buds gave lower yields. AIna, the period between harvesting and extraction affected the yield of concTete and absolute. Flowers extracted immediatly gave higher yield than t hose extracted after 7 and 24 hours..The decrease percentages of the concrete were 24.80 and 31.)0 for flowers extracted after 7 and 24 hs., while they were 10.66 and 19.06 for absolute respectively. Beside, flowers washing numbers affected the yield of concrete and absolute. Flowers soaked for three times gave higher yield of concrete a.nd a.bsolute, while thoseaoaked for one time gave the lower yield •’ 19- The physicochemical properties of bitter orange concretr were, within the limite of those reported in the literature except specific gravity which WetS lower, while that of absolute and refractive index were higher. Acid, ester and saponification values of absolute were lower than those reported in the liter~ture. 20- The major constituents of neroli oil and bitter orange absolute were linalool and linalyl acetate. 21- Storage of neroli oil and bitter orange absolute affected ita chemical composition. 22- The chemical composition of nerali oil and bitter orange absolute were affected by time of flowers collection, proper stage of flowers and the period between harvesting and disti~lation or extraction. |
