Özet
Rose water is the hydrosols obtained by distillation of the petals of the oil rose plant (Rosa damascena Mill.) using the distillation method. In these hydrosols, 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol (PEA) is the major compound. PEA compound is widely used in cosmetics, cleaning and food industries, especially in perfumery. PEA compound can be synthesized synthetically in laboratory environments. However, each synthesis step and subsequent purification processes increase the cost. In this study, as an alternative to synthetic methods, purification of PEA compound, which is naturally present in rose water, was carried out using flash chromatography method. It was studied in the flash chromatography device at wavelengths of UV1 λ: 254 nm UV2 λ: 265 nm UV3 λ: 274 nm UV4 λ: 320 nm. The pure product obtained was analyzed by GC-MS and it was determined that the PEA compound was 96% pure. With this technique, naturally occurring odor components in plants can be obtained with high purity. In addition, since it is close to the purity of the chemical standards used in the laboratory, higher purity products can be obtained with some corrections and repetitions in the method parameters. In this way, the products obtained can be used in many fields as well as used as standard chemicals in the laboratory. Standard chemicals can be obtained naturally in this way.
