Abstract
The essential oil of the fresh aerial parts of Inula graveolens (L.) Desf. (Asteraceae), obtained by hydrodistillation in a Clevenger-type apparatus, was analyzed by GC-MS. Thirty compounds were characterized representing 89.9 % of the essential oil with isobornylacetate (50.8 %), borneol (18.3 %) and τ- cadinol (6.2.%) as main components.
