Abstract
The volatile constituents of the aerial parts of Varthemia. persica DC. var. persica, growing
wild in Iran, were investigated by GC-MS. Sixty seven constituents were identified. δ-Cadinene
(9.7%), Selin-11-en-4-α-ol (5.30%), Germacrene D (4.9%), Bicyclogermacrene (4.7%),
α-Muurolene (4.7%), β-Eudesmol (4.52%), β-Himachalen oxide (3.6%), γ-Eudesmol (3.54%),
β-Bourbonene (3.21%) were found to be the major constituents of the oil respectively.
