The comparison of SPME fiber coatings, and optimization of temperature and time of extraction for headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in Pouteria sapota (sapote mamey) fruits is presented. The PDMS/DVB coating afforded the highest extraction efficiency. The extraction conditions were optimized by using Doehlert experimental design. By using the optimized HS-SPME method, 21 VOCs were identified, which include mainly terpenoids and esters, followed by aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, alcohols and ketones. The most abundant compounds in Pouteria sapota pulp were cedrol (25.0%), azulene (7.3%), β-ionone (5.7%) naphthalene (5.6%), α-pinene (5.0%), and benzaldehyde (4.3%). Seventeen VOCs were identified for the first time in the fruit.
