Rt: Retention time; KILit: Kovats retention index on a DB-5 column in reference to n-alkanes; KIExp: Experimental Kovats retention index. The identification of EO components was established on the mass spectral data (MS) and Kovats indices (RI) with those of Wiley spectral library collection and NIST library databases.
