Abstract

Tecurium is a plant which belongs to the family Lamiaceae (Labiataea). This study was conducted in order to investigate the phytochemical composition of the leaves of Tuecrium mascatenses grown in Oman. The volume of the isolated oil was 1.2 m10.5 % w/w. Thirty two compounds were detected. The main constituents were limonene (17.2 %), linalool (12.4 %), α-pinene (10.1 %), β-eudesmol (10.1 %), unknown (7.6 %), linalyl acetate (4.3 %) bergamotene (4.3 %), β-pinene(3.5 %) and β-selinene (2.5 %).
