Abstract: In this paper, the volatile oil of Patrinia heterophylla Bge. was obtained by the simultaneous steam distillation-solvent extraction, which was carried out in the device designed in our lab. The yield of the oil was 0. 63%. Its chemical composition was studied by capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Over 50 components were separated, of which 30 compounds composing 56.32% of the oil were identified. The major component, isovaleric acid, was separated by distillation under reduced pressure and identified by MS, IR and NMR.
