The invention relates to the field of
orychophragmus violaceus volatile oil extraction, and discloses an extraction preparation method and application of
orychophragmus violaceus volatile oil, and the
orychophragmus violaceus volatile oil comprises 48%-53% of a main component and 47%-52% of a
secondary component; the main components comprise 10.0%-10.4% of
palmitic acid, 5.8%-6.2% of n-noncosane, 5.3%-5.7% of perhydrofarnesyl
acetone, 5.2%-5.6% of benzyl
nitrile, 4.2%-4.6% of
phytol, 3.3%-4% of 3, 4-dimethoxystyrene and 3.2%-3.5% of 3-
hexene-1-ol, and the extraction and preparation method of the orychophragmus violaceus volatile oil comprises the following steps: S1,
raw material pretreatment; s2, simultaneous
distillation and extraction; s3, purifying volatile oil; and S4, sealing, refrigerating and storing the volatile oil. The orychophragmus violaceus volatile oil provided by the invention can remove
