| Abstract: | The essential oils of the leaves and fine stems of Psidium acutangulum, P. striatulum, P. guineense and P. guajava were obtained by hydrodistillation and analysed by GC-MS. The main compounds identified in the oil of P. acutangulum were α-pinene (14.8%), 1,8-cineole (12.9%) and β-pinene (10.1%). The oil of P. striatulum was dominated by β-caryophyllene (28.6%), α-selinene (7.7%), caryophyllene oxide (7.6%) and β-selinene (7.4%). The major constituents found in the oil of P. guineense were β-bisabolol (17.4%), limonene (6.8%) and epi-α-bisabolol (6.7%). The oil of P. guajava was dominated by α-pinene (23.9%), 1,8-cineole (21.4%) and β-bisabolol (9.2%). Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
