Abstract
A combination of capillary columns with conventional and chiral statio nary phases in a double-oven gas chromatograph (2D-GC) was employed to investigate the enantiomeric composition of beta-caryophyllene in sev eral liverworts. By comparison with a synthetic standard of racemic be ta-caryophyllene, enantioselective gas chromatography using akis(2,6-d i-0-methyl-3-0-pentyl)-beta-cyclodextrin as a chiral stationary phase revealed the presence of up to 85% (+)-beta-caryophyllene in some spec imens of Pellia endiviifolia and P. epiphylla.
