Medicinal plants are used all over the world because of their lower risk of side effects and environmentally friendly, cost-effective production compared to chemical drugs, encouraging researchers to do more research. One of the most popular medicinal plants is Vitex agnus-castus L., grown in tropical and subtropical regions, with various health benefits. We have studied the chemical composition of the leaf essential oils of Vitex agnus-castus L. introduced to Absheron. Essential oils from fresh leaves of Vitex agnus-castus L. were obtained by hydrodistillation and their volatile components were identified by GC/MS. Leaves of Vitex, grown at the Institute of Dendrology, have a light yellow liquid with an essential oil concentration of 0.45%. More than 20 components have been identified in the essential oil of the leaves. The leaf oil also contained large amounts of 1,8-cineole (28.31%) and βpinene (13.1%). The results are given by comparing studies conducted on the same species in our country and in the world.
