Abstract
The essential oils of Shorea robusta heartwood and resin were isolated by hydrodistillation of their respective petroleum ether extracts. Nine and seventeen compounds representing 80.35 % and 78.43 % of the oil, respectively were identified by GC-MS. Germacrene-D was found to be the chief constituent of both the oils. This is the first report on heartwood and resin oils of Shorea robusta.
