The oils obtained by steam distillation of the ¯owers and leaves of Tanacetum polycephalum growing wild in Iran were investigated by a combination of GC and GC±MS. About 10 compounds in the ¯owers and 10 compounds in the leaves have been identi®ed. The main constituents of the oil of the ¯owers were

✦ Synopsis
The essential oil from aerial parts of Tagetes mandonii Sch. Bip. (Asteraceae) was obtained by hydrodistillation. The oil content was 0.43% (v/w), on a dry weight basis. The oil composition was analysed by GC and GC±MS; 62 of the 71 compounds detected were identi®ed, accounting for 96.8% of the oil, cis-(11.8%) and trans-ocimene (15.2%) were the main components, with appreciable amounts of ocimenones (12.9%), tagetones (12.5%), limonene (7.9%) and, in sesquiterpene fraction, spathulenol (6.9%). cis-Anethole (9.2%) is the main constituent of the phenylpropanoid group (12.7%).
