Abstract

The genus Stachys L. (Lamiaceae) is represented in Turkey by 83
species and altogether 109 taxa. The rate of endemism in Turkey is 43.4 with 33
species. Stachys.
obliqua Waldst
et Kit was collected in July, 2015 in Yarımca to Eskişehir. The essential oil
from air-dried aerial parts was isolated by hydrodistillation using a Clevenger
apparatus. Chemical composition of the oil was investigated using GC- FID and
GC/MS techniques. In total, 97 compounds were identified making up 70.1% of the
total volatile constituents. Hexadecanoic acid (10.1%), germacrene D (8.2%),
hexahydrofarnesyl acetone (4.4%), β-bourbonene (2.1%) were found as main
constituents in the oil

Keywords
