Abstract:The chemical compositions of essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from leaves and stems of Xyloselinum vietnamense and X. leonidii, two new species belonging to the family Apiaceae, were analyzed by GC-MS. The major components in both species were sabinene, and -pinene, myrcene, -phellandrene, (Z)--ocimene, and terpinen-4-ol. The monoterpene sabinene was most abundant in the leaves of X. vietnamense (75.0%). These compounds might be considered as chemotaxonomic markers of Xyloselinum species. In th… Show more
