Özet
The essential oil was extracted by hydro-distillation from the peels of Sour (C. aurantium), Lemon (C. limon), Kumquat (C. japonica), Mandarin (C. tangerina) and Orange (C. sinensis). The yields were found between 0.32% (Lemon) and 0.75% (Kumquat) (v/w), respectively. The main components of Sour (C. aurantium) essential oil were limonene (74.50%), cc-pinene (1.39%), beta-myrcene (4.57%), linalool (4.50%), and linalyl acetate (1.24%). The oil of Lemon (C. limon) oil contained 45.67% limonene, 2.45% beta-myrcene, 1.58 % linalool, 1.8-cineole (1.18%), gamma-terpinene (10.98%), p-cymene (4.40%), alpha-terpinolene (1.06%), beta-elemene (1.81) alpha-pinene (2.62%) and p-cymenene (1.2%), alpha-terpineol (1.47%), thymol (10.08 %).. In the case of Kumquat (C. japonica), the predominant compounds were limonene (80.49%), p-myrcene (4.42%), beta-cubebene (5.54%) and bicyclogermacrene (1.01%). However, results showed that Mandarin (C. tangerina) peel oil was dominated mainly by limonene (83.57%) and linalool (1.98%). The main comparents of Orange (C. sinensis) essential oil were limonene (71.80%), beta-myrcene (4.55%), sabinene (1.39%), linalool (3.89%), octanal (1.64%) and cc-pinene (1.17%). In conclusion, results showed that Turkish Citrus spp essential oils are a potential natural source of monoterpenes such as limonene, beta-pinene and linalool.
