Abstract

GC/MS analysis of the volatile constituents of aerial parts of D. cinerea revealed the identification of 70 compounds representing (86.13%) of the total volatiles of the plant. α-Pinene (26.47%), nonanal (5.11%) and 8, 11, 14 eicosatrienoic acid (4.90%) were found to be the major compounds. Oxygenated compounds constituted (32.81%) mainly attributed to nonanal (5.11%), 8, 11, 14 eicosatrienoic acid (4.90%), hexadecanoic acid (2.95%), phytol (1.17%), β-ionone (1.45%), and methylisoeugenol (1.08%). Anticonvulsant activity of the total ethanol extract and successive extracts were investigated which revealed that highest activities were exhibited after 2 hours by100mg of total ethanol extract (80.87% potency), methanol extract (121.76% potency) and 100mg of ethyl acetate extract (74.15% potency) respectively
