Abstract

The terpenoids in the volatile constituents of Liaoning Shcisandra Chinesis Baillon have been determined by the analytical method of GC/MS. Thirty terpenoids molecular structure were characterized. They are 11.89% monterpenes, 4.60% monoterpene oxides, 58.74% sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, and 1.62% oxygen-containing sesquiterpenoids in the total volatile constituents quantified by chromatograph. Among them, the sesquiterpene make up the characteristic constituents. Every terpenoid constituent percent content was obtained using area normalization method of HP-59970 chemstation.
