Abstract

3α-acetoxy-8,12-epoxyeudesma-4,7,11-triene Chloranthaceae essential oil composition Sarcandra glabra
The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the leaves of Sarcandra glabra was analysed by GC and GC/MS. Sesquiterpenoids were quantitatively the most significant chemical class, accounting for over 80% of the oil. The leaf oil was characterized by a very high level (51.7%) of a novel sesquiterpenoid which was identified as 3α-acetoxy-8,12-epoxyeudesma-4,7,11-triene.
