“…Green cardamom ( Elettaria cardamomum ) is a widespread spice native to the Asian continent which is often referred to as the queen of spices due to its very pleasant, mild aroma and taste that is appreciated for its organoleptic characteristics for culinary purposes or its properties in traditional medicine [ 1 , 2 ]. Initially, cardamom cultivation was solely placed in India by British planters.…”

Green cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum) is an outspread spice native to Asia, which is well appreciated for its sensory characteristics, delicate aroma, and unique taste. Currently, the main cardamom extracts are essential oils (EOs), and regarding current market tendencies, this market is in high growth. For this reason, technologies such as the instant controlled pressure drop (DIC) have been applied to reach higher yields and better quality of EO. Then, this study explores the impact of DIC as a pretreatment before hydrodistillation (HD) on the EO yield and their antioxidant activity. Obtained results showed that the coupling of DIC-HD increased the yield of essential oil and also had a positive impact on their antioxidant capacity. The EO yield of DIC-HD (140 °C and 30 s) was 4.43% vs. 2.52% for control; the AOX of DIC-HD (165 °C and 30 s) was 86% inhibition vs. 57.02% for control, and the TEAC of DIC-HD (140 °C and 30 s) was 1.44 uMTE/g EO vs. 13.66 uMTE/g EO.

When chromatographed on active alumina, epoxides isomerize yielding chiefly the corresponding α,β-unsaturated alcohols. Side reactions were observed in some cases. Limonene oxide yielded cis-1 (7), 8 p-menthadien-ol-2, cis- and trans-carveol, perillyl alcohol, trans-8p-menthene-diol-1,2, and cis- and trans-dihydrocarvone. α-Pinene oxide was converted to pinocarveol, cis- and trans-pinocamphone, campholenic aldehyde and an unidentified alcohol. Caryophyllene oxide yielded three isomeric unsaturated alcohols which were converted to a ketone of known structure.
