Abstract

The composition of the essential oil (EO) ofThymus dimorphus Klok. et Shost. has been studied with the aid of chromato-mass spectroscopy for the first time, and 80 components of this oil have been identified. The EO of this thyme is represented mainly by terpenes and their alcohols and by sesquiterpenes and their alcohols. The total proportions of terpene and sesquiterpene derivatives are approximately the same. It has ben shown that with such a composition of the EO the widely employed polar columns of Carbowax 20M are not very effective.
