The volatile compounds identified from four species of Annona from Vietnam are being reported. The oils were obtained from aliquots of plant samples by steam distillation and subjected to GC and GC-MS analysis. The main compounds of Annona glabra L., were -caryophyllene (21.5%) germacrene D (17.7%), -cadinol (5.4%) and -elemene (5.2%). Annona squamosa L., comprised mainly of -pinene (1.0-11.9%), limonene (0.8-11.7%), -cubebene (0.5-13.0%), -caryophyllene (11.6-24.5%), spathulenol (0.8-9.0%), caryophyllene oxide (1.0-10.6%) and -cadinol (3.3-7.8%). The significant constituents of Annona muricata L., were -pinene (9.4%), -pinene (20.6%), -mentha-2,4(8)-diene (9.8%), -elemene (9.1%) and germacrene D (18.1%). However, camphene (0.2-6.6%), -copaene (2.0-7.3%), -elemene (5.9-16.6%), -caryophyllene (8.3-14.9%), -bisabolene (0.4-10.2%), -cadinene (1.7-4.8%) and germacrene D (9.3-22.8%) were the main compounds common to samples of Annona reticulata L. There were significant amounts of sabinene (11.2% and 2.7%; leaf and stem bark) and bicycloelemene (9.6% and 6.1%; stem and bark).
