Chemical composition of the resin essential oil of Canarium album from Vietnam

Abstract: UDC 547.913The composition of the essential oil obtained from the resin of Canarium album (Lour.) Raeusch, Burseraceae, growing in Vietnam, was studied by GC and GC/MS. Twenty-nine compounds representing 95.2% of the oil were identified. Monoterpenoids made up 93.2% of the oil, with β-pinene (33.3%), α-terpinene (19.4%), γ-terpinene (14.1%), and terpinen-4-ol (11.9%) as the main components.Sesquiterpenoids made up 2.0% of the oil, and the content of each individual was below 0.5% of the oil.

“…C. schweinfurtii resin, found in Central African countries, yields an oil which was reported to either be rich in octyl acetate (60 %), [1] limonene (37–52 %), [2,3] or γ‐terpinene (32 %) [4] . In Vietnam, C. album resin oil features β‐pinene (33 %), α‐terpinene (19 %) and γ‐terpinene (14 %) as the main constituents, [5] whereas C. parvum and C. tramdenum resin oils are rather sesquiterpenic in nature, with respectively germacrene D/α‐amorphene (23/15 %) and bulnesol/δ‐elemene (16/15 %) as major compounds [6] . A solvent extract of C. madagascariense resin contained chiefly para ‐cymene and terpinolene by GC [7] .…”

“…The EO of the canary sap was reported to be composed mainly of monoterpenes. The major compounds reported from the same genus of Canarium albumin were β-pinene, α-terpinene, γ-terpinene, terpinen-4-ol, p-cymene, limonene and α-terpineol, α-pinene [22,23]. The potency of EO as an anti-inflammatory agent is higher than aspirin [23].…”

“…The flavor is mainly due to C. album being rich in polyphenols. These fantastic fruits accumulate rich secondary metabolites, such as phenolic compounds [8,9], flavonoids [10], terpenoids [11,12] and polysaccharides [13,14], which are responsible for some pharmacological functions, such as antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammation [15][16][17]. In particular, the fruit has played an important role in antioxidant capacity and free-radical scavenging ability [5,8,18], which benefit from its total phenolic content (TPC).…”
