ANALYSIS OF NON POLAR FRACTION FROM MAHKOTA DEWA (Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff.) Boerl.) FRUIT WITH GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-MASS SPECTROSCOPY

Abstract

Analysis of n-hexane fraction from mahkota dewa fruit had been carried out by using GC-MS. The result of GC separation revealed that n-hexane fraction contains 27 component but only 8 component were identified. Based on the GC-MS library prediction, compounds from peak 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 20, 22 and 25 respectively were analysed as styrene (1), furan, tetrahydro-2,2-dimethyl (2), phenol, 2-methoxy-4-(2-propenyl)- eugenol (3), 2-propanoic acid 3-phenyl methyl ester (methyl cinnamic) (4), benzene 1,2-dimethoxy-propenyl 4-2 metileugenol (5), hexadecanoic acid methyl ester (methyl palmitic) (6) methyldihydromalvalic (7) tetracosanoic acid, methyl ester (8). Unfortunately another peak unidentified. Analysis fragmentation were carried out for the 3 compounds that have been successfully identified.
