Abstract

The leaf oils of Eucalyptus globulus Labill., E. camaldulensis Dehn., E. gomphocephala A. DC, E. sideroxylon A. Cunn. ex Wolls, E. robusta Smith, E. tereticomis Smith and E. viminalis Labill. isolated by steam distillation were analyzed by GC/MS. All the species contained α-pinene (2.8–24%), β-pinene (0.2–3.6%), limonene (1.5–4.5%), myrcene (0.1–1.1%), 1,8-cineole (3.5–81%), allo-aromadendrene (0.1–8.8%) and globulol (0.2–5.7%) as principal leaf oil components
