Secondary metabolites present in the volatile fraction of six wild mushroom species (Clitocybe odora, Clitocybe fragrans, Hebeloma crustuliniforme, Lepista nuda, Tricholoma fracticum and Tricholoma terreum) were studied, as an attempt to identify compounds capable to distinguish mushroom species for taxonomic and authentication purposes. Volatiles were assessed by headspace solid phase microextraction (HS–SPME) and by gas chromatography/ion-trap mass-spectrometry (GC/IT–MS). By using target analysis, 46 volatiles were grouped in 5 chemical classes: alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, sesquiterpene-like compounds and terpenes. Each species revealed a unique volatile profile, with changes in the dominant chemical class. Aliphatic compounds with eight carbon atoms, such as 3-octanol, 1-octanol and 3-octanone were the most abundant. The non-target approach application, using all HS–SPME–GC …
