Abstract

The essential oil of overground parts of wild Glechoma hederacea L. collected at full flowering in seven localities of Eastern Lithuania were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. More than half of the oils were rich in sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (56.5–67.9%). The most predominant compound was germacrene D (14.1–20.7%). The other main constituents were γ-elemene (9.0–16.0%), β-elemene (8.7–12.9%), phytols (2.8–15.6%), (Z)-β-ocimene (2.2–8.5%), 1,8-cineole (92.2–5.4%), β-ylangene (2.7–4.1%) and germacrene B (2.2–3.9%). Forty-three identified compounds made up 89.1–96.2%.
