Abstract

Objective To analyze and identify the chemical constituents of essential oil from the fruits of Cinnamomum camphora chvar.Borneol.Methods The essential oil from the fruits was extracted by steam distillation and its chemical constituents were analyzed and identified by GC-MS.Results Fifty compounds were separated,and 42 kinds of which accounting for 99.536% were identified.D-borneol was the most abundant compound,of which the amount was 50.684% of the total constituents.Conciusion This present study demonstrated higher content of natural D-borneol,providing scientific basis for further exploration and utilization of the fruits of Cinnamomum camphora chvar.Borneol.
