										Abstract: The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from two Annonaceace plants from Vietnam were analysed by gas chromatography (GC) coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The main conpounds identified in bark oil of Polyalthia longifolia var. pendula Hort were zingiberene (26.7%), β-caryophyllene (11.1%) and β-bisabolene (7.9%). The major compounds in the flower oil of Desmos cochinchinensis Lour., were the monoterpenoids camphor (59.1%), limonene (8.9%), α-pinene (8.6%) and camphene (6.0%).
