Abstract:

Simultaneous distillation-extraction followed by GC-MS combined with computer-assisted library search was used for the analysis of volatile compounds in Agastache rugosa. Results showed that the yield of volatile oil from Agastache rugosa was 0.37%. Totally 79 compounds were identified, among which chavicol methylether (47.60%), D-limonene (5.91%), caryophyllene (6.59%), eugenol methyl ether (1.87%) andβ-muurolene (1.42%) were prominent compounds.

Key words: Agastache rugosa, volatile composition, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
