Essential oil of Lepechinia schiedeana (Lamiaceae) from Costa Rica

The composition of the essential oil isolated by steam distillation from aerial parts of the Costa Rican herb Lepechinia schiedeana (Schlecht) Vatke (Lamiaceae) collected in El Empalme, Costa Rica, was determined by capillary gas chromatography (GC) and coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (...

description The composition of the essential oil isolated by steam distillation from aerial parts of the Costa Rican herb Lepechinia schiedeana (Schlecht) Vatke (Lamiaceae) collected in El Empalme, Costa Rica, was determined by capillary gas chromatography (GC) and coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses. Fifty-one components were identified corresponding ca. 93% of the oil. The major components were <IMG SRC="http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/beta_pña.JPG" WIDTH=9 HEIGHT=16>-pinene (26.6%), cis -pinocamphone (25.1%), <IMG SRC="http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/de.JPG" WIDTH=9 HEIGHT=14>-3-carene (6.1%), trans -pinocamphone (4.0%), camphor (3.8%) and <IMG SRC="http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/http:/img/fbpe/rbt/v47n3/beta_pña.JPG" WIDTH=9 HEIGHT=16>-caryophyllene (3.7%).<br>Se estudiaron los constituyentes del aceite esencial de las partes aéreas de Lepechinia schiedeana (Lamiaceae) mediante el uso de cromatografía de gases (GC) y cromatografía de gases acoplada a espectrometría de masas (GC-MS).
