Abstract: Cymbopogon distans(ness)W.wats was found to contain a-terpinene(27.8%),piperitone(18.2%),intermedeol(14.4%),and geranyl acetate(7.3%)as the main components in the essential oil by means,of preparative column chromatographic isolation and IR,1H NMRand MSspectrom-etry.Ail the 26 components were identified and estimated from the essential oil both by capillary gas chromatagraphy-mass spectrometry and by the Kovats index of the components on the OV-101 liquid phase.
