Abstract

In this study, to determine the functional subgroups of the components of Euphorbia anacampseros Boiss., which is a perennial endemic species, FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectroscopy method was adopted. The results showed that hydrocarbons particularly terpenoids, alkanes and olefin structures exist in the composition of E. anacampseros Boiss. IR spectra of E. anacampseros Boiss. samples collected at different stations screened different peak points. There is a correlation between the vibrational frequency values and the altitudes of the areas where E. anacampseros Boiss. samples were collected. This study is the first attempt in analyzing of this species by using FTIR method.
