Resumen:
Volatile constituents of the essential oils fromleaves and inflorescences of Solidago chilensis Meyen were analyzed by GC-FID GC-MS and 13C-NMR and thirty-six different compounds were identified. Pumiloxide, an unusual labdane diterpene,was foundto be one of the major components in both oils (15.3% ans 12.3% respectively). Other important constituents were limonene and several sesquiterpenes, mainly cadinene. The antifungal activity ofo the leaf oil was assayed against five different strains of filamentous fingi and one yeast. Paper disk agar diffusion test showed human pathogenic dermatophytes to be the most sensitive.
