ABSTRACT

Objective To identify the volatile chemical components of cassia mimosoides. Method The volatile components were distilled with steam distillation,and then their compounds were confirmed by GC-MS. Results Fifteen peaks were detected by GC-MS,and 14 components of them were identified. The identified compounds occupied 98.97% of the volatile oil. The main component is 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone (43.86%),then is phytol (36.54%).Conclusion 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone can be used for the identification of this plant.
