Beta-asarone

Acorns calamus L. var. angustatus Besser A. gramineus Ait. A. tatarinowii L. Chang Pu (Sweet flag) (leaf, root) Acoric acid, beta-asarone, yellow bitter aromatic volatile oil, alpha-pinene, d-camphene, calamene, calamenol, calamenone.50,357-450 Anticonvulsant, analgesic, aphrodisiac, carminative, contraceptive, dessicant, diaphoretic. [Pg.20]

Acorus calamus contains beta-asarone [(Z)-l,2, 4-trimethoxy-5-prop-l-enyl-benzene], which is carcinogenic (2). Commercial calamus preparations have mutagenic effects in bacteria (3), while calamus oil (Jammu variety) is carcinogenic in rats. [Pg.32]
