Essential Oil Composition of Clinopodium vulgare L. subsp. arundanum (Boiss.) Nyman from Bingöl (Turkey)

Abstract

Many of the medicinal and aromatic plants from Lamiaceae taxa are uses presumed to be connected to the terpenic constituents of the essential oils. In this study aerial parts essential oil of Clinopodium vulgare L. subsp. arundanum was analyzed by HS-SPME. As a result, thirty seven components were identified. b-caryopyllene (16.1%), g-terpinene (15.4%), germacrene D (10.3%), p-cymene (8.6%) and thymol (6.4%) were detected the major constituents. With this study, chemotypes of studied sample were detected b-caryopyllene, g-terpinene, germacrene D, p-cymene and thymol. In addition, studied plant sample was found to be rich in respect to essential oils and the results discussed natural product, renewable resources and chemotaxonomy
