Abstract

Hydrodistillation of the leaves (L) and flowers (inflorescence, F) of Rhus mysurensis plants growing on the Aravalli ridge at New Delhi in India gave sweet scented volatile oils which were investigated by GC and GC-MS analyses. Both the oils were found to contain almost the same compounds. The major components of the oils were identified as α-pinene (F, 15.5%; L, 26.8%), limonene (L, 26.2%; F, 51.3%), sabinene (L,3.8%; F, 4.1%), β-caryophyllene (L, 6.6%; F, 9.4%) and α- and β-eudesmol (L, 7.8%; F, 4.4%).
