“…On the other hand, the EOs from S. dolomitica and S. somalensis collected in Italy contain only the trans isomer, although only in small amounts (0.35 and 0.59%, respectively) [52]. As regards Salvia species growing in South America, the presence of cis-cadina-1(6),4-diene (1) has not been reported in the EOs of S. palaefolia from Colombia [53], S. officinalis, S. sclarea, S. lavandulifolia, and S. triloba from Brazil [54], and S. lavandulifolia from Perú [55].…”

Salvia pichinchensis Benth was collected in the South of Ecuador and the essential oil (EO) was distilled from aerial parts and analyzed by GC-MS and GC-FID. The physical properties, chemical composition, and cholinesterase inhibitory activity were determined. Six major components, all sesquiterpenes, were identified: cis-cadina-1(6),4-diene (17.11%) (1), γ-curcumene (13.75%) (2), (E)-caryophyllene (12.58%) (3), (E,E)-α-farnesene (10.00%) (4), α-gurjunene (9.46%) (5) and allo-aromadendrene (6.96%) (6). The EO showed an interesting selective inhibitory activity against the enzyme butyrylcholinesterase (50.70 μg/mL) and only low inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase (117.60 μg/mL). The chemical composition and butyrylcholinesterase activity of the EO of S. pichinchensis Benth was reported for first time.
