Solvents used for extraction of the oils, MeOH and H2O, were of HPLC grade (Fisher Scientific, Loughborough, UK). The deuterated NMR solvent used, chloroform-d (purity 99.8% D), was acquired from Eurisotop GmbH (Saarbrücken, Germany). Hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO; NMR grade, ≥99.5%, Sigma-Aldrich Corporation, St. Louis, MO, USA) was used as a line-shape indicator. NMR tubes (D600-5-7, 5 mm diameter and 7 inches long) with PTFE caps were obtained by Deutero GmbH (Kastellaun, Germany).
