The chemical composition of the leaf oils of Murraya exotica L., Amyris balsamifera L., Severinia buxifolia (Poir.) Ten. and Triphasia trifolia (Burm. f.) P.

In the oil obtained from A. balsamifera, 56 compounds were identified of which valerianol (43.8%) was the major constituent. Sixty-seven components were identified in the oil of S. buxifolia and the major constituents were (E)-β-santalol (26.9%) and α-santalene (22.3%), while 81 compounds were identified in the oil of T. trifolia and the major constituent was germacrene B (16.3%).
