abstract

background: the genus eucalyptus (family myrtaceae) comprises well-known plants of over 600 species of trees. although most of the plants are native to australia, numerous species have been introduced to other parts of the world, including iran, as economic and ornamental trees in forest trial provenances, where the plants have become source of important fast-growing hardwood trees and eucalyptus oils.  objective: aim of this studu is to determine chemical composition in essential oils of eucalyptus for medicinal uses.   methods: the essential oils isolated by hydrodistillation from the leaves of two eucalyptus viridis r. baker and eucalyptus oleosa f. muell. were analysed by gc and gc/ms.  results: the main components identified in e. viridis oil were 1,8-cineole (84.7%), a - pinene (4.4%), trans-pinocarveol (2.2%) and in e. oleosa were 1,8-cineole (89.4%), b - pinene (1.2%) and a - pinene (1%). conclusion: the chemical composition of the oils with high content of 1,8-cineole (84.7 and 89.4%) are classified as a “eucalyptol or medicinal” type.

Volatile Oil Constituents of Leaves of the Eucalyptus gillii Maiden and E. microcarpa Subsp. macrocarpa Hook from Iran

The essential oils isolated by hydrodistillation from the leaves of two Eucalyptus gillii Maiden and E. microcarpa Subsp. macrocarpa Hook were analysed by GC and GC/MS. The main components identified in E. gillii oil were 1, 8-cineole (79.5%), trans-pinocarveol (8%) and ?-pinene (2.7%), and in E. microcarpa were 1, 8-cineole (77.3%), ?-pinene (5.6%) and terpin-1-ol (5.1%). Oils with high conten...

Chemical composition and phytotoxicity of volatile essential oil from intact and fallen leaves of Eucalyptus citriodora.

A total of 23 volatile constituents was identified and characterized by GC and GC-MS in the volatile essential oil extracted from intact (juvenile and adult) and fallen (senescent and leaf litter) leaves of lemon-scented eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora Hook.). The leaves differed in their pigment, water and protein content, and C/N ratio. The oils were, in general, monoterpenoid in nature wit...
