S‐Carvone was isolated from Mentha spicata (Fam. Lamiaceae) and purified using chromatographic methods, and also characterized with GS‐MS, FTIR, and NMR techniques. The antioxidant activity of S‐carvone obtained from Mentha spicata was evaluated as in vitro using a total antioxidant activity test. Results were compared with a standard antioxidant, α‐tocopherol. The results indicate that S‐carvone possess high antioxidant activity compared to α‐tocopherol.
