Abstrakt: AbstractHydrodistillation of fresh leaves and rhizomes of Hedychium coronariumcollected in the Atlantic rain forest of southeastern Brazil afforded essential oils in 0.68% and 0.20% yields, respectively. Analysis of the oils by GC and GC/MS revealed as predominant constituents in the leaf oil β-caryophyllene (43.0%), caryophyllene oxide (12.1%) and β-pinene (11.6%,), whereas 1,8-cineole (34.8%), β-pinene (16.7%) and α-terpineol (13.1%) were the major components identified in the rhizome oil.
