Neem trees are grown commercially in plantations to produce [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azadirachtin|azadirachtin]], a chemical extracted from the seeds and leaves. Azadirachtin has been promoted as a new insecticide that is considered more ‘environmentally friendly’ than synthetic insecticides. Plantations have been established in tropical to subtropical regions of the world, including semi-arid and wet tropical regions, from sea level to about 700 m elevation (NRC 1992).

"The volatile components of the flowers of A. Indica had a strong sulphury smell. The main components were sesquiterpenes, δ-cadinene (9.43%), copaene (7.03%), humulene (3.70%), δ-cubebene (3.04%)... Ethyl laurate and ethyl ester of high molecular fatty acids and high molecular weight of hydrocarbons were also found. There were 21 organosulphurs detected, in which a number of unidentified components were picked up by the S34isotope peak of the parent ions. The organosulphur components found were similar to those found in the neem seed oil obtained by steam distillation (Mubarak and Kulatilleke, 1992; Balandrin et al., 1988)." cis- (8.8%) and trans-3,5-diethyl-1,2-4-trithiolan (8.8%) were identified. \\ | "The volatile components of the flowers of A.

"...the millions of small, star-like, whitish or cream-colored flowers, which grow in panicles in the axils of the leaves, emitted clouds of a characteristic aromatic, white-floral scent with a pronounced honey note. This scent is mainly based on the combiantion of linalool, 2-phenylacetaldehyde, 2-phenylethyl alcohol and derivatives, and 2-nitroethyl benzene." \\ | "...the millions of small, star-like, whitish or cream-colored flowers, which grow in panicles in the axils of the leaves, emitted clouds of a characteristic aromatic, white-floral scent with a pronounced honey note.
