Cinnamomum is a genus of evergreen aromatic trees and shrubs belonging to the family Lauraceae. The genus contains over 300 species, distributed in some regions of the world [1]. The chemical constituents of essential oils of some species grown in Vietnam have been published. The volatile contents are usually monoterpenes and sesquiterpenoid compounds of
diverse structural pattern [2–5]. To date, the authors are not aware of any literature report on the volatile composition of C. doederleinii var. raoanensis Kim Dao and C. scalarinervium Kosterm. The aim of the present study was to report the chemical compounds identified in the essential oils obtained from the leaves of these plants grown in Vietnam.
