Flowers ofN. japonicashowing different floral stage were sampled between 2004 and 2011 from individual plants growing in streams or ponds in Shiga and Gifu Prefectures, Japan, and the Botanical Garden of Kyoto University. These flower stages included: (1) almost all the stamens were tightly appressed to the gynoecium (stage 1, probably the first day of anthesis), (2) about half of the stamens (outside) were bent backward (stage 2), and (3) almost all the stamens were bent backward (stage 3). A total of 39 compounds were detected. The major scent compounds included undecane, limonene, caryophyllene, pentadecane and nonane; minor amounts of oxygenated monoterpenes, e.g. lilac aldehydes, and benzenoids, e.g. 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, were also obtained. There was no substantial difference among the chemical profiles of the different flower stages. However, undecane, the main volatile detected at stage 1, drastically decreased with the age of the flower. The chemotaxonomic significance of this finding is discussed.
