Abstract
Glyptostrobus pensilis (Staunton ex D. Don) K. Koch is a critically endangered species, native to southeastern China and also very locally found in Dak Lak Province, Vietnam. Essential oil isolated from leaves is a monoterpene-rich oil containing mainly limonene (33.3%), α-pinene (23.4%) and bornyl acetate (9.2%). The composition of G. pensilis wood oil is rather complex and the identification of individual components needed fractionation over column chromatography. The main components, identified by GC(RI), GC-MS and 13C NMR, were cedrol (29.3%), occidentalol (6.6%) and occidentalol isomer (5.9%).
