The volatile constituents of Abies koreana Wils. from Poland have been investigated by GC, GC–MS, 1 H‐ and 13 C‐NMR. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation of needles, twigs and cones, as well as twigs with needles, with yields of 1.0%, 0.64%, 0.42% and 0.83%, respectively. Eighty‐four compounds were identified in the essential oil, which consisted mainly of monoterpenes, such as α ‐pinene, camphene, limonene and bornyl acetate, and sesquiterpenes such as intermedeol and the new (+)‐( 1R,4R,5R,7S )‐guaia‐10(14),11‐diene.
