Essential oils from Calyptranthes concinna, C. lucida and C. rubella (Myrtaceae)

Abstract: Essential oils from Calyptranthes concinna, C. lucida and C. rubella, collected in Southern Brazil, were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Sixty-two compounds were identified representing about 98% of the oil contents. All samples were rich in cyclic sesquiterpenes (more than 90 %), mainly those from cadinane, bisabolane and germacrane cyclization pathway. The mainly components characterized were bicyclogermacrene (22.1% in C. concinna;11.7% in C. rubella), cis-calamenene (10.3% in C. concinna), beta-caryophyllene (16… Show more

“…According to the author, this characteristic is frequent in essential oils collected from Brazil, these being commercially important volatile compounds [25]. The authors of [26] studied the chemical composition of essential oils from the Calyptranthes genus and identified a high concentration of cyclic sesquiterpenes such as Caryophyllene, Germacran and Cadinanol, in accordance with the present study, which are considered common compounds in Myrtaceae.…”

“…The caryophyllene oxide is a sesquiterpen present in essential oil of Ageratum conyzoides (known as wild mint) (Castro et al, 2004), Calyptranthes concinna, Calyptranthes lucida and Calyptranthes rubella (Limberger et al, 2002), Piper arboreum (Mesquita et al, 2005), Cinnamomun zeylanicum (Lima et al, 2005), Baccharis articulata, Baccharis cognata, Baccharis uncinella, Baccharis milleflora (Agostini et al, 2005) propolis (Sousa et al, 2006;Torres et al, 2008), Chamomilla recutita (Borsato et al, 2007), Calendula officinalis (Gazim et al, 2007), Copaifera langsdorffii (Lima Neto, Gramosa, Silveira, 2008), Duguetia furfuracea (Valter et al, 2008) with antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (Ulubelen et al, 1994) and anticarcinogenic activity (Sousa et al, 2006) The results of allelopathic assay have demonstrated statistically significant difference between the germination of L. sativa with aromatic water and with distilled water, indicating inhibition of germination (Table II). In FIGURE 1 -Chemical structure of caryophyllene oxide (Sousa et al, 2006) Composition of essential oil and allelopathic activity of aromatic water of Aster lanceolatus Willd.…”

“…As principais vias de ciclização observadas, classificadas conforme descrito em Limberger e colaboradores 14 , foram as do cadinano (de 7,2 a 63,1%), germacrano (de 4,6 a 64,3%) e cariofilano (de 3,9 a 39,9%), como ilustrado na Figura 1. A rota do bisabolano foi marcante apenas em M. obtecta (34,0%), caracterizada pela presença de ar-curcumeno (19,0%), e a série acíclica, em M. lajeana (32,1%), com predominância de acetato de (E)-nerolidila (25,3%).…”
