Antique Lavender Essential Oil from 1945, its chemical composition and enantiomeric distribution

Öz

Properly stored lavender from 1945 was collected in French market and Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) analysis was carried out to see possible chemical transformation and chemical composition. Total of 102 peaks (100% components) were identified, out of them 10 were oxidized minor components (total 0.41%). The lavender essential oil was dominated by the linalool (40.8%), terpinen-4-ol (9.9%), α-terpineol (3.5%), linalyl acetate (16.4%), lavandulyl acetate (3.8%), and trans-caryophyllene (2.2%). Enantiomeric distribution of major monoterpenoids were also measured.
