The Essential Oil ofArtemisia judaicaL. from the Sinai and Negev Deserts. Aromatic Plants of the Holy Land and the Sinai, Part II

Abstract
Three oils of Artemisia judaica L., which is the most aromatic species in the flora of Sinai and Negev, were investigated by GC/MS. Seventy-one constituents were identified in the oils of at least two chemical varieties. Substantial quantities of piperitone (14.73–36.98%), trans-ethyl cinnamate (5.56–13.98%), camphor (5.76–11.53%), were found in each oil studied. Artemisia ketone (14.42–20.96%) was found to be a major constituent of two of the oils studied.
