- Abstract
The essential oil composition of the aerial parts of Nepeta raphanorhiza is reported for the first time. Capillary GC-FID & GC-MS analysis of the essential oil led to the identification of 16 components accounting for 97.5% of the total oil. Sesquiterpene hydrocarbons dominated the oil composition accounting for 65.3 % followed by monoterpene hydrocarbons constituting 19.5 % of the total oil composition. The major c omponents were (Z) -β- farnesene (49.2%),δ-3-carene (12.3%), α-bisabolene (9.4%) and germacrene-D-4-ol (5. 8%).
