Abstract

The essential oil chemical profile of Adesmia bijuga Phil. leaves, an endemic Chilean species from Maule Region central Chile with a critically endangered situation, was investigated for first time. This essential oil was isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). As a result, 29 components were identified; representing 94.8% of the oil composition. The major constituents were spathulenol (24.3%), cadalene (9.6%), alpha-copaene (8.5%) and ledol (8%).
