Contribution to the study of the essential oil from Thymus tosevii growing wild in Greece.
The essential oil of Thymus tosevii Velen. (Lamiaceae) growing wild in Greece was investigated by means of GLC, GC-MS, and the physico-chemical constants were determined. The essential oil content was 0.9%. As main constituents resulted linalool 35.5% and geraniol 27.5%. In addition twelve monoterpene hydrocarbons, nine oxygen containing compounds, one sesquiterpene, and two terpene esters were identified, making up about 98% of the oil.
