Abstract

The volatile aroma constituents of plant G essential oil (PEO) were separated by the steam distillation extraction (SDE) method using a Clevenger‐type apparatus, and analyzed by gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Fifty‐six volatile chemical components, which make up 73.38% of the total aroma composition, were tentatively characterized. This PEO contained 27 hydrocarbons (10.05%), 12 alcohols (36.55%), 8 ketones (19.05%), 4 esters (2.59%), 2 aldehydes (1.79%), and 3 miscellaneous components (3.35%). Borneol (12.96%) and camphor (10.54%) were the predominant volatile components in plant G, an aromatic medicinal herbaceous plant.
