Three essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from the leaves, roots and stem barks of Croton zambesicus Muell. Arg. (Euphorbiaceae) were analysed by GC and GC-MS. This West Tropical African species has many uses, especially as a drug source for the cure of many ailments. The three organs were found to contain 0.17-0.34% yield of oil. The qualitative composition of the three types of oil were found to be similar; those from the leaves and stem bark were found to be rich in monoterpenes (69.6% and 75.2% respectively), while the root bark oil contained 57.0% sesquiterpenes. The root and stein barks oils were found to be rich in oxygen-containing compounds. with spathulenol (14.0%) and linalool (33.8%) as the major components, respectively. The leaf oil was found to contain mainly hydrocarbons and only 11.6% of oxygenated compounds. Copyright (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
