Essential oils of Hyssopus officinalis L. cultivated in East Lithuania
Genovaitė BERNOTIENĖ, Rita BUTKIENĖ

Hyssopus officinalis L. plants were collected in six localities of East Lithuania. Essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation were analysed using GC and GC/MS. Pinocarvone (21.1–28.1%) was the major component in four oils and isopinocamphone (16.8–33.6%) in two oils. Beside pinocarvone, notable amounts of isopinocamphone (11.5–15.9%), β-pinene (7.0–11.4%), germacrene D (3.7–5.5%) and hedycaryol (4.1–4.8%) were found in four oils. The other main constituents in two other oils were pinocarvone (9.0–13.6%), β-pinene (7.2–8.6%) and hedycaryol (4.0–9.1%). Compounds with the pinane carbon skeleton made up 43.6–56.9% of the essential oils. Oxygenated monoterpenes were the most characteristic components of the oils (36.0–50.7%). Sixty-three identified compounds comprised 91.0–97.8% of Hyssopus officinalis L. essential oils.
