  abstract = {{L}eaf litter plays a major role in carbon and nutrient cycling, as well as in fueling food webs. {T}he chemical composition of a leaf may directly and indirectly influence decomposition rates by influencing rates of biological reactions and by influencing the accumulation of soil organic carbon content, respectively. {T}his study aimed to assess the impact of the chemical composition of rubber ({H}evea brasiliensis ({W}illd. ex {A}. {J}uss.) {M}uell. {A}rg.) leaves on various soil properties of different ages of rubber (4-5, 11-12, and 22-23 year-old). {S}ynchrotron-based {F}ourier transform infrared microspectroscopy ({S}r-{FTIR}) was utilized for analyzing the chemical composition of plant leaves. {T}he {S}r-{FTIR} bands illustrated that the epidermis of rubber leaves from 4-5-year-old trees was found to contain a high quantity of polysaccharides while mesophyll from 22-23-year-old trees had a large number of polysaccharides. {T}he change in soil properties in the older rubber plantation could be attributed to its chemical composition. {T}he change in soil properties across all tree ages, i.e., increased litter and organic carbon content, was a relatively strong driver of soil biota evolution. {T}he aliphatic of {C}-{H} in the leaves showed high correlation with soil organic carbon ({SOC}) and permanganate-oxidizable {C} ({POXC}) from 22-23 year-old trees. {T}his study shows the differences in the organic chemical composition of leaves that are consequential to soil organic carbon.},
