%X The volatile components from the leaves of 9 aromatic plants was extracted by n-Hexane and analyzed by GC-MS. The volatile components were identified and compared. This study not only provides reference for the efficient utilization and rational development of aromatic plants, but also provides the basis for the study of the metabolism of plant terpenes. Among the nine aromatic plants, 77 volatile terpenoids were detected. Agastache rugosa contains the most species composition, which is 46, followed by <i>Rosmarinus officinalis</i>(35), <i>Thymus mongolicus</i>(33), <i>Salvia officinalis</i>(33) and <i>Monarda didyma</i>(31), caryophyllene and humulene are common components of the nine plants. The highest concentrations of volatile terpenes were found in <i>Rosmarinus officinalis</i>, followed by <i>Salvia officinalis</i> and <i>Agastache rugosa</i>. The total absolute content of monoterpenoids was significantly higher than that of sesquiterpenoids. Thus, <i>Rosmarinus officinalis, Salvia officinalis, Agastache rugosa, Thymus mongolicus</i> and <i>Monarda didyma</i> are suitable materials for the volatile terpenes extraction. Comparatively, <i>Origanum vulgare, Salvia elegans</i> and <i>Salvia sclarea</i> are not suitable for volatile terpenes extraction. The ability of these aromatic plants to generate monoterpenoids in normal environment is higher than that to produce sesquiterpenoids. It may be related to the terpenoid synthase that contains. This result can provide data supporting for the study of terpenoids metabolism.
