Abstract

The essential oil of Dracocephalum nutans L. (Lamiaceae) has been investigated for the first time. The GC-MS analysis of the oil showed the presence of about 25 monoterpenoids including pinocamphone (56.4%), β-pinene (12.7%), isopinocamphone (4.3%), α-phellandrene (4.6%), and isopinocampheol (3.7%).
