✦ Synopsis
The essential oil of fresh ¯owers of Plumeria obtusa L. collected in Brunei Darussalam was isolated by hydrodistillation and examined by GC±MS. Forty-seven components were identi®ed, representing 97% of the oil, with benzyl salicylate (39%), benzyl benzoate (11%), (2E, 6E)-farnesol (8%) and (E)-nerolidol (5%) as major constituents. The remaining identi®ed constituents of the oil (34%) were found as minor constituents (43%).
