Gas chromatography — mass spectrometry (GC-MS) coupled with chemometric resolution upon two-dimensional data was employed
to analyze the constituents of essential oils of essential oils of
Angelica sinensis. Constituents in essential oils of
Angelica sinensis root were identified by GC-MS with the help of subwindow factor analysis (SFA) method resolving two-dimensional original
data into mass spectra and chromatograms. 76 of 97 separated constituents in essential oil of
Angelica sinensis root were identified and quantified, and they account for about 91. 36% of the total content. The results show that ligustilide,
butylene phthalide, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, carvacrol, alloocimene,2,6,6-trimethylbicyclo-[3,1,1]hept-2-ene are the main
constituents in essential oil of
Angelica sinensis root.
