Abstract: The cinnamon essential oil was purified by using chromatography on silica gel,C18-reversed phase silica gel,Sephadex LH-20 column and High Performance Liquid Chromatography(HPLC),and its components were identified by using Mass Spectrometry(MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy(NMR) and tested to analyze their antifungal activities against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz.From the cinnamon essential oil 5 major components,e.g.trans-cinnamic acid,2’-methoxycimnamaldehyde,trans-cinnamaldehyde,1,2-dibenzoylethane and coumarin,were identified.The antifungal activity inhibition test showed that the first three components had a high antifungal activity against C.gloeosporioides Penz.which was in the order of transcinnamic acid > 2’-methoxy cimnamaldehyde > trans-cinnamaldehyde.
