Abstract
β-Thujona (1), sabineno (2), y sabinol (3) se identificaron como los componentes mayoritarios del aceite esencial de "Menta Nativa" (identificación en progreso), con β-Thujona estando presente a una concentración mayor al 90 %. Los compuestos han sido identificados por técnicas de RMN y cuantificados por cromatografia Gaseosa. Es notorio el hecho que el isomero α-Thujona esta ausente en el aceite esencial, Plantas conteniendo α-Thujona y β-thujona son importantes medicinas hierbales y aditivos alimenticios, sus aceites esenciales son apreciados en el mercado comercial

Remarkable is the fact that the isomer α-thujone is absent in the essential oil, plants containing α-Thujone and β-thujone are important herbal medicines and food additives, and their essential oils are appreciated in the commercial market
