Özet: The genus Vinca (Apocynaceae) comprises about seven species in Turkey. In this study, volatile oil and phenolic compositions was determined in two Vinca L. species; Vinca herbacea and Vinca soneri. For determination volatile content GC-MS/MS and to reveal the phenolic composition of leaves HPLC technique was preferred. According to the analyses the major volatile component of VH extract is tetrapentacontane (77.84 %), VS extract is 6- octadecanoic acid (28.85 %). The major phenolic compound of VH extract is routine trihydrate (1280,25 mg/100g) and VS extract is chlorogenic acid (401,23 mg/100g) respectively. As a result, it has been concluded that leaf extracts contain very valuable natural compounds in terms of anticancer and antiproliferative effects.
