ABSTRACT: The chemical components of the leaf oil of Litsea acutivena Hayata collected from Pù Huong Natural Reserve, Nghe An Province, Vietnam, were identified by co-chromatography with authentic samples,
gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and linear retention
indices. The significant compounds of L. acutivena were α-phellandrene (30.4%) and α-pinene (14.2%). The
constituents of essential oil of L. acutivena from Vietnam are being
reported for the first time.
