Glycosidically bound volatiles in peppermint (Mentha piperita L.)
1993
Stengele, M. | Stahl-Biskup, E.
The complete pattern of the glycosidically bound volatiles in Mentha piperita L. cv. Black Micham grown outdoors is presented for the first time. The glycosidic content amounted to 0.003% in the fresh plants, the aglycone fraction consisting mainly of 1-menthol, 1-octen-3-ol and 3-octanol. d-Neomenthol only occurred in portions up to a maximum of 4% in that fraction. The content and the composition of the glycosidically bound constituents as well as their distribution within the plant and their seasonal variations are described.
