It is well known for its multiple health benefits, most of which are correlated with its phenoliccomposition. Four phenolic compounds were identified in the extracts of aerial parts of corianderextracts, including caffeic acid, isoquercitrin, quercetin-3-O-glucuronide, and rutin. Caffeic acid wasthe major compound in the extracts. A Box–Behnken Design (BBD) was employed in conjunctionwith the response surface methodology (RSM) to develop an ultrasound-assisted extraction methodfor the determination of phenolic compounds in the aerial parts of coriander using the level of caffeicacid as the target response. The following working variables were evaluated: methanol level in theextraction solvent, temperature, sonication time, and liquid-to-solvent ratio. It was found that themethanol concentration is the most significant factor that influences the recovery of caffeic acid. Theoptimal extraction conditions were: 10 min as the extraction time, 70 C as the temperature, 50%for methanol in water as the solvent, and 6.51 mL of solvent per gram of sample. The repeatabilityand reproducibility were calculated and RSD values below 6% were obtained in both cases. Thenew method was employed for the extraction of real coriander samples and it is suggested that thismethod could potentially be applied for quality control analyses.
