Citharexylum spinosum is an aromatic plant
belonging to Verbenaceae family. Citharexylum genus
contains approximately 70 species. Which is found in
Bermuda West, southern, Indies and United States
through Mexico to South America []. Normally it 1, is
cultivated. As a street tree which is a popular
ornamental primarily in, tropical and subtropical areas
.Of the world as an ornamental for its fragrant white
flowers and attractive foliage [2]. There are many
common names including. Florida fiddlewood and
Spiny fiddlewood [3]. Common name of Fiddlewood
is obtained from the use of its wood making stringed
instruments. By the people of the Caribbean. C.
spinosum is also used in cabinetry [,]. This 2 4 plant
can be grown height up to 15 m.The ovate to elliptic
leaves are 4-20 cm length. It also contains orange
petioles. Small white flowers are produced throughout
the. Year on hanging axillary and terminal racemes and
panicles 20-40 cm in length [,]. Various 5 6 classes of
natural compounds. Are produced by plants. These
components contain the different purposes according
to functional group appeared in their. Structure. At, least
1700 compounds are in a class of volatile components
[,]. These 7 8 volatile compounds such as terpenoids
fatty acid derivatives,,, Indole and benzenoids play
important role for plant reproduction by attraction of
insects []. Moreover isolated 9-11, aroma. Compounds
are used as ingredients in perfume and food
industries [9]. The study of volatile compounds in
plants is performed. By using solid phase
.Microextraction (SPME) which is a solvent-free
adsorption / desorption technique. It is applied in many
applications such. As investigation of odor components
in foods and beverages [,]. It 12 13 consists of coated
fibers that are used to extract. And concentrate target
compounds form the sample []. After, 12 extraction the
fibers are transferred to analyze the target. Compounds
.By gas chromatographic (GC) []. Keene, 12 13 [13]
proposed the amount of analyte adsorbed by the fiber
depends on the thickness. Of the coating and on the
distribution constant of the analyte. The extraction
time is dependent on the period of time required. To
obtain precise extractions for the analytes with the
highest distribution constants. Type of fiber is the
.Important key for improving the extraction efficiency
of SPME. Polarity of target compounds should be
similar to those. Coated on SPME fiber [13]. A thick
phase coat is the most suitable for extracting volatile
compounds while a, thin coat. Is the most effective for
adsorbing / desorbing semi-volatile compounds [12]. It
has gained widespread acceptance in many. Areas in recent years []. 14-16
.According to the advantage, of SPME highly
volatile compounds of C. Spinosum flowers were
extracted and analyzed by SPME. C GC-MS. Three
fibers are applied in this study including 100 could m
PDMS fiber 75 tracks, m CAR / PDMS fiber and 30 could m
DVB / CAR / PDMS.? The quantitative analysis of all
identified highly volatile compounds was also
described.
