[Studies on the chemical constituents of the essential oil from the leaves of Dalbergia odorifera T. Chen].

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study the constituents of the essential oil from the leaves of Dalbergia odorifera T. Chen. METHOD: The constituent were separated and identified by GS-MS. RESULT: 21 compounds from the essential oil were identifed, which account for 77.71% of total volatile oils, 21.73% of 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, 13.97% of n-hexadecanoic acid, 6.69% of phenol. CONCLUSION: The study provided a chemical basis as a medicinal herb.
