Volatile components of coconut toddy were analyzed using GC Clarus 500 Perkin Elmer (Germany)-MS and identified by matching the mass spectra obtained with those present in the “NIST 2005” Library. Totally Thirty one volatile components were identified and were different quantities amounts of volatile components. The highest peak of volatile components in the fresh toddy observed was Lupeol and Squalane.
