Abstract

By dynamic gas extraction of the volatile components of the native scent of the leaves of the potatoSolanum tuberosum L. growing under natural conditions, followed by the gas-chromatographic separation and massspectrometric analysis of the substances obtained, the following sesquiterpene compounds have been identified:trans-andcis-caryophyllenes, α-ylangene, α-copaene, β-bourbonene, β-elemene, Z-β-farnesene, aromadendrene, α-humulene, α-elemene, β-bisabolene, γ-cadinene, and δ-cadinene.
