Abstract. The studies on the phytochemical and pharmacological study of M. officinalis raw materials
are being conducted in different countries of the world. There are reports that M. officinalis
raw material is rich in flavonoid, terpenoid, phenolic acids, tannins and essential oils. The purpose
of the work is to study the phenol content of M. officinalis raw material from the flora of Azerbaijan.
Qualitative reactions and chromatographic studies confirm the presence of phenolic compounds in
raw materials. Thus, as a result of the study of the composition of phenolic compounds of M. officinalis
L. raw material from the flora of Azerbaijan by the high-performance liquid chromatography
method, 18 substances were determined and identified. The indicated substances were identified
for the first time in M. officinalis raw materials distributed in Azerbaijan.
