Abstract
The essential oil of the aerial parts of Artemisia sieberi Bess, has been investigated by a combination of chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. This oil possesses a fresh herbaceous, camphoraceous, earthy odour with a fruity and dried plumโlike background. The main constituents of the essential oil are camphor (44%), 1,8โcineole (19%), camphene (5%), terpinenโ4โol (2.5%), ฮฑโterpineol (2%). The major component of the sesquiterpenes (altogether only 4.5% of the oil) is dehydroโ1,8โsesquicineole.
