Abstract

Essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from heartwood and sapwood of Cordia trichotoma Vell. were analyzed by GC/FID and GC/MS. The essential oil compositions were similar and characterized by their higher abundance on sesquiterpenes. The main components were: α-cadinol (26.5%), α-muurolol (25.1%), epi-α-muurolol (20.9%), δ-cadinene (11.9%) and guaia-3, 10(4)-dien-11-ol (10.7%). Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
