Abstract
Lamium flexuosum Ten. is a perennial species, belonging to the Lamiaceae family, that primarily thrives in temperate biomes. Its natural distribution includes Italy, Spain, France, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. In this study, the chemical profile of the essential oil extracted from the aerial parts of the Sicilian accession of this plant, which had never been previously analysed, was assessed using GC-MS. The essential oil (Lf) was found to be rich in sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (65.3%) with β-caryophyllene (21.9%), β-copaene (16.9%) and α-humulene (8.0%) as the predominant compounds. A comparison with other previously studied essential oils of the Lamium genus is discussed. Additionally, a review of the traditional medicine of Lamium species has been conducted.
期刊介绍：
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
