Abstract

The analysis of the Egyptian Lemongrass oil by gas chromatography indicated that about 28 compounds were clearly detected from which 17 only were known. The intensities of the identified components proved that Citral is the main constituent in the Egyptian Lemongrass and showed 78% intensity. The identified alcohols namely linalool, geraniol and citronellol have intensities of 7.25, 33 and 35% respectively. The major hydrocarbons of the Egyptian Lemongrass oil are d‐cadenine, d‐limonene, α‐pinene and α‐caryophylline. Their intensities were 42.75, 22.25, 13.50 and 15% respectively. The other hydrocarbons showed lower concentrations.

## Abstract The chemical components of the Egyptian Lemongrass oil were analysed. The oil gained by steam distillation of the vegetative organs of the plant. Thin‐layer chromatography of Lemongrass oil was tried with two solvent systems, i. e. cyclohexane: ethylacetate with 85:15, and hexane: ethyl
