An attempt was made to determine the effect of the volatile components of edible wild grass by cooking. We collect the volatile components of Agrimonia Japonica by dynamic\ulcorner head space method. Samples were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS). Thirty-six components, including 16 hydrocarbons, 7 alcohols, 4 esters, 7 benzoid compounds, 1 aldehyde and 1 ketone were confirmed in raw samples. Also 6 hydrocarbons identified in cooked sample. Alpha-pinene and 3-he-xane-ol were regarded as the most abundant components in raw sample. By heating of Japonica, most of the volatile compounds were disappeared, but alpha-pinene was remained abundantly.

To investigate the constituents of following plants, Valeriana fauriei species, which are V. fauriei var. fauriei $H_{ARA}$, V. fauriei form. coreana $H_{ARA}$ and V. fauriei var. dasycarpa $H_{ARA}$, we carried out gas-liquid chromatographical analysis of the volatile oils of these plants and found that camphene, l-bornylacetate, ${\alpha}-pinene,\;{\beta}-pinene$, d,l-limonene, l-borneol and ${\alpha}-kessylacetate$ were common components in their volatile oils. However, their terpenoidal composition was considerably different from ${\alpha}-kessylacetate$ in V. faurie var. fauriei, from kessanol, ledol, kessoglycol and nardol in V. fauriei var. dasycarpa, and from kessoglycoldiacetate, ${\alpha}-kessylalcohol$, faurinone and terpineol in V. faurie form. coreana. It was found by gas-liquid chromatography that the terpenoidal patterns of these Korean valerians were similar to those of Japanish valerians.

The composition of essential oil from O. javanica was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Using the broth dilution method and disk diffusion test, anti-microbial activities of the oil fraction and its main components were evaluated against various antibiotic-susceptible and resistant strains of pathogenic microorganisms. As a result of GC-MS analysis, 57 compounds, including ${\alpha}-terpinolene$ (28.1%), dl-limonene (16.0%), ${\gamma}-terpinene$ (10.3%), ${\beta}-pinene$ (9.7%) and ${\alpha}-pinene$ (6.0%) were identified in the essential oil fraction. The essential oil fraction of O. javanica and its main components exhibited significant inhibitory activities, particularly against Candida albicans (antibiotic-susceptible strains) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (antibiotic- susceptible and resistant strains). The main components of the O. javanica oil fraction displayed different patterns of activity against the three tested Candida species as exemplified by the differential minimum inhibiting concentration (MIC) values. The disk diffusion test showed that the activities were dose dependent.

Essential oil of the root of Angelica dahurica Benth et Hook(Umbelliferae) was investigated. Essential oil was obtained from the dried roots by steam distillation and fractionated by column chromatography. Each isolate or fraction was identified by GC, GC-MS and spectral analysis. It was found to contain eleven monoterpenes such as ${\alpha}-pinene(4.74%),\;campben, {\beta}-pinene,\;myrcene,\;{\alpha}-phellandrene,\;{\delta}-3-carene(39.4%),\;{\alpha}-terpinene,\;{\rho}-cymene,\;{\beta}-phellandrene,\;{\alpha}-terpinene,\;terpinolene\;and\;also\;found\;to\;contain\;4-vinylguaiacol,\;iso-elemicin,\;{\beta}-elemene$, caryophyllene, ligustilide, osthol and seven tentatively identified sesquiterpenes.

Essential oil of the root of Angelica gigas Nakai (Umbelliferae) was investigated. Essential oil was obtained from the dried roots by steam distillation and fractionated by column chromatography. Each isolate or fraction was identified by GC, GC-MS and spectral analysis. It was found to contain eleven monoterpenes such as ${\alpha}-pinene,\;camphene,\;{\beta}-pinene,\;myrcene,\;{\alpha}-phellandrene,\;{\Delta}-3-carene,\;{\alpha}-terpinene,\;p-symene,\;limonene,\;{\gamma}-terpinene$ and terpinolene and also found to contain 4-vinylguauacol, myristicin, elemol, ${\beta}-eudesmol,\;{\alpha}-eudesmol,\;four\;sesquiterpenes\;involving\;{\Delta}-elemene$. Four sesquiterpenes and five sesquiterpene alcohols were tentatively identified by comparison of their mass spectra.

This research is aimed at evaluating the potential abilities of the natural acaricide of F. suspense oil against Tyrophagus putrescentiae and Dermatophagoides spp. Based on the $LD_{50}$ values, in contact bioassay, F. suspense oil (8.19, 3.28, and $4.35{\mu}g/cm^2$) showed acaricidal effects against T. putrescentiae, D. farinae, and D. pteronyssinus, respectively. Fumigant toxicities of F. suspense oil showed similar patterns as those observed with contact toxicities. GC/MS analysis showed the major components of F. suspense oil to be ${\beta}$-pinene (45.88%), myrtenol (13.86%), (+)-${\alpha}$-pinene (13.09%), (-)-trans-pinocarveol (7.34%), sabinene (6.64%) and pinocarvone (4.13%). These findings indicate that F. suspense oil has potential as a natural acaricide.

The composition and concentration of monoterpenes in the leaves of Artemisia japonica were determined. And seasonal variation in monoterpenes of A. japonica were investigated. Samples were taken from five sites at Mt. Muhak. Monoterpenes in the leaves were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The leaf monoterpene fractions were dominated by R.T. 5.026, ${\alpha}-thujene$, sabinene, ${\beta}-pinene$, cyclohexane (R.T.=12.859) and R.T. 23.149. There were marked seasonal differences in concentration and composition of leaf monoterpenes. There were many kinds of monoterpenes in leaf of spring time, however most of monoterpenes concentration was small. On the other hand, there were not many kinds of monoterpenes in late time, but monoterpene concentrations were increased.

Oxidation of cycloalkenes with $O_2$ promoted by heterogeneous bis(acetylacetonato) cobalt (II) complex catalyst which can be recycled has been performed under mild conditions. It was found that $\beta$-ionone, cyclohexene, 1-methylcyclohexene, and $\alpha$-ionone were efficiently oxidized with $O_2$ in the presence of Co (II) complex and butyraldehyde at $55\;{^{\circ}C}$. A simple treatment of the resulting products led to epoxides as predominant products and a small amounts of allylic oxides, the chemoselectivity for the former being 82.1 - 90.8% with a 70.6 - 98.6% substrate conversion. On the other hand, oxidation of 1-phenylcyclohexene, 1-cyclohex-1-enylethan-1-one, $\alpha$-pinene, and $\beta$-pinene gave allylic oxides as major products.

In order to study the distribution characteristics of natural volatile organic compounds (NVOCs), we investigated the seasonal variations of $\alpha$-and $\beta$-pinene levels in a pine forest in Florida for a you. The mean concentrations of $\alpha$- and $\beta$-pinene measured during the whole study period were computed to be 125: 86 (N = 65) and 86$\pm$52 pptv (N = 56), respectively. According to our data grouping scheme, the seasonal means for both pinones were observed to peak during fall with their max and min values in summer and winter, respectively. The overall results of our study suggest that terpenes are subject to highly strong temporal variability because of changes in their major source characteristics across seasons.

Volatile compounds in Pinus densiflora were extracted with Likens-Nickerson apparatus for three hours, and were separated and identified by gas chromatography(GC) and mass selective detector(MSD). Twenty six compounds were isolated from Pinus densiflora, identified by GC-MSD and twelve compounds were confirmed by matching retention times of the pure comounds. The main valatile compounds were terpenoids such as limonene(36.2%), $\beta$-pinene(16.9%), $\beta$-myrcene(12.6%) and $\alpha$-pinene(10.9%), and the total amount of these main compounds was 367.9$\mu\textrm{g}$ per 1g of pine twigs.
