Essential oils were obtained by Clevenger-type hydrodistilled from the aerialparts of plants collected from the natural habitats. The essential oils yield is very low and 0.5 (v/w). Twenty seven constituents werecomprised the 98.1% of the total essential oil extracted from the Heracleum platytaenium. The predominant compounds of Heracleumplatytaenium were as Limonene (30.8%), Terpinolene (17.9%), β-Pinene (16.3%) and Ocimene (12.6%). The results were discussed inview of chemotaxonomy and natural products.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBiyolojiArticle815962320459
