The composition of essential oil of the leaves of Artemisia annua L. growing wild in Iran, were determined by the use of GC/MS. The leaf essential oils obtained by hydrodistilation. Predominantly comprised monoterpenids and the main constituents were α-Pinene (7.8713.28%), 1,8-Cineole (5.77-17.26%), Artemisia ketone (1.44-6.97%), Camphor (14.2629.05%) and Pinocarvone (3.64-8.04%). The principal sesquiterpenes were β-Caryphyllen (3.43-9.37%), Germacrene-D (3.07-6.26%) and β-Selinene (0.46-10.36%).
