Abstract

Nineteen mono- and sesquiterpenoids were identified in the essential oils of the leaves and fruits of Annona senegalensis var. senegalensis by means of GC and GC-MS. The major constituents were car-3-ene in the fruit oil and linalool in the leaf volatile oil. The quantitative and qualitative composition of the two essential oils were considerably different.
