Tilia cordata Mill. - syn. Tilia parvifolia Ehrh. - Malvaceae \\
little-leaf linden, small-leaved lime, **Winterlinde**, Kleinblättrige Linde, Steinlinde 

Native tree to Europe and West Sibiria, up to 30m high; leaves with darker green upper side and blueish green underside, beneath glaucous; flowers with pleasant scent. There are numerous hybrids planted: Tilia x europaea = Tilia x vulgaris = Tilia cordata x Tilia platyphyllos \\
Dried flowers ared used as diaphoretic, as described for [[tilia_platyphyllos_scop|Tilia platyphyllos]].

"In the countries of Central and Western Europe, linden flowers are a traditional herbal remedy made into an herbal..., considered to be of value as an anti-inflammatory in a range of respiratory problems: colds, fever, flu, sore throat, bronchitis, and cough."

"Thus the difference in the composition of the aroma compounds between the headspace and the **essential oil** is clearly shown. This is also the case with **dried lime tree flowers** (Flores Tiliae). The main constituents of the essential oil of this drug are 1,8-cineole, linalol, carvone, thymol and carvacrol (concentration more than 2 %), but all of these volatiles only be detected in the headspace in a concentration below. On the other hand p-cymene, fenchone, and  α- and β-thujone are only trace compounds of this essential oil.\\
As main constituents of the headspace of lime tree flowers (Flores Tiliae), p-cymene, fenchone,  α-thujone, β-thujone, camphor, anethole and menthone (each above 5 %) were found. In addition, more than forty other compounds, mainly terpenes, were identified. Also in this headspace sample a lot of aromatic compounds were found, which may have an important influence on the odour impression of Flores Tiliae. The olfactometric investigation of the headspace of the dried lime tree flowers by the GC-sniffing technique showed also in this case, that no compound on its own was responsible for the typical odour of these flowers. The essential oil from lime tree flowers can be described as follows: spicy, reminiscent of lovage, woody and also reminiscent of the dry part and of the animal part of neroli." \\

The highly sensitive 2,6-dimethyl-3(E),5(Z),7-octatriene-2-ol and its 5(E) isomer (natural ratio 1:10, sweet floral odor) are major constituents present only in the headspace and not in extracts of the flowers of T.cordata.\\

Later on, headspace analysis of hyacinth flowers showed that 2,6-dimethylocta-1,3,5,7-tetraenes and 2,6-dimethylocta-3,5,7-triene-2-ols are associated with charcoal as adsorbing material. It was shown that these compounds are artefacts from ocimene which mainly arise during sampling with charcoal. \\

"More than 45 headspace constituents of the **living lime tree flowers** were detected by gas chromatographic-spectroscopic methods; more than 35 of them were identified. Main components (concentration higher than 3%) of this mixture with an odour impression similar to that of the genuine lime tree flowers' as well as with weak fresh and aromatic side-notes were limonene (22%), p-cymene (22%), δ3-carene (15%), germacrene-D (9%), β-phellandrene (4%) and farnesol (4%). Using a GC-sniffing technique, regions of specific odour impressions were found by means of which the total odour of the headspace sample of the living flowers was determined: the aromatic odour was caused especially by p-cymene, trans-carveol and germacrene-D; the floral part by linalool, 2-phenylethanol, trans-rose oxide, geraniol, nerol, 2-phenylethyl acetate, geranyl acetate and partly, nerolidol; the fresh part by camphene, limonene and camphor; and the narcotic part by 2-phenylethanol, nerol, heliotropin and farnesol. However, indole, 2-phenylethyl benzoate, farnesyl acetate and some other sesquiterpenes had additional odour notes... \\
The heavy sweetness and sultriness of the fragrance of the lime tree flowers undoubtedly was due to the content of indole and 2-phenylethyl acetate." \\

In comparatively small amounts, unsaturated C9 aldehydes and alcohols (catabolites of linolenic acid) are important scent modifiers in violet flowers, linden blossoms and Acacia farnesiana flowers. \\
(Add.: 0.02% (E,Z)-2,6-Nonadienal was found in the headspace of linden flowers; an extract of the flowers contained also (Z)-3-nonen-1-ol, (E)-2-nonen-1-ol, (Z)-6-nonen-1-ol, (Z,Z)-3,6-nonadien-1-ol, and (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienol; R.Kaiser pers.comm.) \\

"The essential oils of linden blossom from the clean localities contained 47.3-55.0% of oxygenated constituents, while the blossom oils from trees growing on the tile-covered pavements contained only 20.6-27.7% of these compounds. The major constituents determined in linden blossom oils were 3-p-menthene, nonanal, nonanoic acid, α-cadinene, hexahydrofarnesyl acetone, kaurene, aliphatic hydrocarbons (C20H42 - C24H50). The identified compounds (169 out of 250) made up 73.4-97.7% of the oils." \\

"It was shown that 3.9-epoxy-1.4(8)-p-menthadiene and cis-rose oxide, both occurring also in the blossoms of the lime tree Tilia cordata (L.), were typical odourants of the linden honey." \\

Linden nectar extracts contained compounds of fatty acid degradation (nonanal, decanal, tetradec-1-ene), phenylpropanoids (3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propan-1-ol, 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanal, 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enal), isoprenoids (vomifolione, vomifoliol, and 3,5,5-trimethyl-4-(3-oxobutyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one), alkaloids (caffeine, theophylline, a trace of nicotine), and a complex mixture of monoterpenes, among them linden ether and 1,8-cineole. Main components of ripe linden bee honey were benzoic acid and phenylacetic acid, together with two new monoterpenic acids, 4-isopropenylcyclohexa-1,3-diene-1-carboxylic acid and 4-(1-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)cyclohexa-1,3-diene-1-carboxylic acid. \\
