    Abstract:
    Gas chromatography-combustion-isotope mass spectrometry was employed for the assessment of the Carbon isotope ratios of volatiles in Italian mandarin and lemon petitgrain oils. In addition, the composition of the whole oil and the enantiomeric distribution of selected chiral compounds were determined for all the samples by using gas chromatography and by multidimensional and conventional enantioselective gas chromatography. The composition of the oils was compared with previous studies. The enantiomeric distribution of lemon petitgrain oils is here reported for the first time. On the composition of mandarin petitgrain oil, the information available in literature, to date, is relative only to one sample from Egypt. Carbon isotope ratio of several terpene hydrocarbons and of their oxygenated derivatives contained in petitgrains was compared with the δ (13)C(VPDB) values of the same compounds present in the corresponding genuine Italian Citrus peel oil. The results prove that the isotopic values obtained for lemon and mandarin petitgrain oils are very close to those relative to the corresponding peel oils determined in previous studies.
