The volatile components in the leaves of C. camphora were analyzed by static headspace‐gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HS‐GC‐MS) combined with accurate weight measurement. Accurate weight measurement obtained by Time‐of‐Flight mass spectrometry (TOF‐MS) helped to confirm the identification of volatiles in the analysis. 59 volatile components in the leaves of C. camphora were identified, which mainly included cis ‐3‐hexen‐1‐ol (5.6%), 3‐hexen‐1‐ol, acetate ( Z ) (11.1%), β ‐caryophyllene (15.4%), bicyclogermarene (8.4%), trans ‐nerolidol (19.5%) and 9‐oxofarnesol (7.7%). The results show that method using HS‐GC‐MS combined with accurate weight measurement achieves reliable identification and has extensive application in the analysis of volatile components present in complex samples.
