To evaluate the fluctuation of secondary metabolites in Arabian lilac during a year, aerial\nparts of the plant were harvested in the middle of each month. The essential oils content from fresh\nand dried plant materials was analyzed by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID)\nand gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS), individually. Phytochemical contents, along\nwith antiradical scavenging potential of the related methanol extracts were separately assessed.\nThe spring and autumn samples (fresh and dried) yielded more essential oil than the other samples.\nForty-one compounds were identified totally in the oils and the major constituents characterized\nwere...................
