Abstract
The essential oils and the volatiles emitted in vivo by flowers, leaves and bracts of Lamium purpureum, L. hybridum, L. bifidum, L. amplexicaule (Lamiaceae) were analyzed by GC-MS and SPME, respectively. All the essential oils were characterized by their high contents of germacrene D. In L. purpureum (35.4%), L. hybridum (39.0%) and L. bifidum (34.9%), it was the main compound, while in L. amplexicaule (28.9%), the main constituent was trans-chrysanthenyl acetate (41.1%). The SPME analyses showed a pattern typical of volatiles for both the different species and the single plant parts analyzed.
