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: ethylacetate with 90:10 V/V. The following results were obtained: The constituents of this oil were eight components. The oil sample proved that the citral component was detected in Egyptian Lemongrass oil with 0.64 R~f~ value. The oil obtained also geraniol, linalool and their esters. The nerol, cineal and citronellal were also detected.
