ESSENTIAL OIL PROPERTIES OF NEPETA L. SPECIES IN AZERBAIJAN FLORA

Mammadova Z.A

This article has been devoted to widespread study of properties of essential oil of Nepeta L. species in Azerbaijan flora. There are extracted Essential oils from plants in different phases (0, 12-1, 61%), their physical and chemical constant symptoms, there has been determined the quality and quantity of essential oil depending on environmental conditions. It was found that the quantity and some extent of quality compositions of the various organs of essential oil components have been changed. The components of explorations are Nepetalactones and Epinepetalactones, essential oil dominated in leaves but in flowers species dominated Aldehidydes. Essential oil of Nepeta L.species has acute lemon, mint aroma smells. Essential oil extracted from these plants is transparent, lightweight from water. There are determined the physical and chemical features of species during clarifying their specific gravity to (D 20, 20), broken coefficient to (n 20 D), acidity quantity, essential oil quantity, essential oil quantity after after acetylation. There are carried out Nepeta L.species fresh essential oil and after condensation comparative analysis of the dynamics and the physical-chemical properties of constants.
