i am interested to do work on volatile but i need procedure how can i extract volatile compound from sucrose
Abuzar;
Per Frederic's response sucrose itself is not volatile. Are you suggesting that there may be volatile compounds associated with your sucrose sample ?. If there are some volatile components you can apply a flow of Nitrogen gas to the sugar mixture to assist in removing or flushing any volatile fraction. Or the volatiles can conversely be reduced by applying vacuum and warming the sample.

Perhaps the questioner wants to break sucrose up into volatile components? The products of caramelisation of sugars includes volatile components. If this is the case heat sucrose to above 186 ºC and follow Steve's advice to isolate the volatile compounds.
Sucrose itself is not a volatile compound but if you mean there is some contamination then can be sorted out depending upon the nature of contamination
But sucrose is a matrix that can be used to trap odours and can also be used as odour dispenser, then it could easily be contaminated by volatiles.
