Sažetak
The present study represents the continuation of our research on chemistry of volatile compounds from wild-growing Brassicaceae plants 1-5. The organic compounds typically presented in plants of Brassicaceae family are glucosinolates. While glucosinolate are nonvolatile compounds, their decomposition products are volatile mostly sulfur-containing compounds. This study is focused on extraction of volatile compounds of two plants, Capsella rubella and Cardaria draba, using headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME), and their analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). HS-SPME is a simple, fast, relatively inexpensive and solvent-free technique which is a widely used for the extraction of volatile compounds from fruits, vegetables and flowers while the GC-MS is the main analytical method for the analysis of volatile profiles of various origin. Capsella rubella and Cardaria draba are wild-growing Brassicaceae plants widespread in mediterranean part of Croatia. They grow on open places exposed to sunlight such as fields, pastures, meadows, waste places, and along roadsides. The volatile sulfur-containing compounds have not been so commonly examined in these two plants 1, 2, especially not using above mentioned HS-SPME coupled with GC-MS. Results presented in this study revealed that sulfur-containing compounds were qualitatively and quantiatively dominating constituents in headspaces of investigated plants. Thus, C. rubella headspaces were characterized by a high percentage of allyl isothiocyanate (79.3 and 67.2%) followed by allyl thiocyanate (11.0 and 8.8%). Dominating compound in headspaces of Cardaria draba was 4-(methylthio)butyl-isothiocyanate (91.4 and 94.2%). Considering the most abundant compounds in headspaces of investigated plants, it can be concluded that the main glucosinolate of Capsella rubella is sinigrin and of Cardaria draba is glucoerucin.
