The composition of leaf essential oil of Cinnamomum pauciflorum Nees, growing wild in northeast India, was studied by GC and GC‐MS. Twenty‐five components representing 98.8% of the total oil were identified. Cinnamaldehyde [=( E )‐cinnamaldehyde] was the major component which alone constituted 89.8% of the oil. Other components above 1% concentration in the oil are linalool (2.6), ( Z )‐cinnamaldehyde (1.2) and α ‐pinene (1.0). Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
