Comparative analysis of the composition of flower volatiles from Lamium L. species and Lamiastrum galeobdolon Heist. ex Fabr
Abstract
The volatiles of fresh flowers from nine natural populations of four Lamium species and Lamiastrum galeobdolon were analyzed by GC/MS. 49 compounds, 43 of them new for Lamium and Lamiastrum, were identified. The studied samples showed similarity of the volatile profiles and dependence of the oil-composition on the collection site. Significant amounts of squalene were found in all samples. The presence of homological series of straight chain alkanes from C12 to C31 was shown. Phenethyl alcohol was found only in L. maculatum f. alba.
