Gas chromatographic analysis revealed that the oil of Crinitaria tatarica was rich in sabinene (32.1%), β-pinene (8.8%), and two unknown (M+200) compounds (I) (II) (21.4% 3.4%). One-step multiple fractionation separation constituents were performed using preparative capillary gas chromatography connected to fraction collector system. This combination allowed recover sufficient quantities with high purity from complex matrix. Separation conditions (column temperature, cooling flow rate,...
