The essential oil extracted by steam distillation from the leaves of wild Ocotea quixos (Lauraceae) was analysed by GC and GC-MS. Sixty one compounds were identified, representing 93.6% of the total detected. The main compounds were beta caryophyllene (15.1%), cinnamyl acetate (11.4%), sabinene (7.6%), geranial (6.6%) and trans-cinnamaldehyde (5.1%). Remarkable differences were noted with respect to the essential oil previously obtained from the flower calices of the same plant.
