dc.description.abstract | The essential oil composition of Cedrela odorata L. leaves was comprehensively investigated by means of capillary GC and GC±MS. Twenty-six constituents were identified in the volatile oil. Sesquiterpenoids such as a-santalene (9.5%), b-acoradiene (7.1%), b-elemene (6.8%), caryophyllene oxide (6.0%) and Z-a-bergamotene (6.0%) were the dominant compounds. Minor constituents included isocaryophyllene, b-bisabolene, b-alaskene and amorpha-4, 11-diene. A rare sesquiterpenoid sulphur derivative, mintsulphide, was identified for the first time in C. odorata essential oil. | en_US |
