Abstract

OBJECTIVE: [corrected] To study the chemical constituents of essential oil from Ligustrum quihoui. METHODS: Essential oil was extracted by steam distillation (SD). The chemical constituents of essential oil was analyzed by GC-MS. RESULTS: The chemical components in the oil were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by GC-MS, 76 components were seperated and 35 components were identified. The main components are n-Hexadecanoic acid (17.28%), (Z, Z, Z)-9, 12, 15-Octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester (12.13%), Phytol (5.80%). CONCLUSION: The method is simple, reliable and with good reprodutivity.
