The Volatile Oil Composition of Fresh and Air-Dried Buds of Cannabis sativa

Abstract: The composition of the steam-distilled volatile oil of fresh and air-dried, indoor-grown marijuana was studied by GC/FID and GC/MS. In all, 68 components were detected of which 57 were fully identified. Drying of the plant material had no effect on the qualitative composition of the oil and did not affect the ability of individuals familiar with marijuana smell to recognize the odor.

“…Hashish looks like a hard yellowish-brownish paste that becomes malleable upon heating and different samples can present a high variety in terms of color, density, content of the active principles and flavor [1]. Besides the biologically active cannabinoids, more than 90 phytocannabinoids have been isolated from Cannabis and its essential oil is a complex mixture containing also monoterpenoids and sesquiterpenoids [5][6][7][8], giving it the typical organoleptic properties. The volatiles constituents of Cannabis have been extensively studied [9] because they represent a potential for chemically fingerprinting different cultivars [10].…”

“…Compound identification was based on mass spectra, retention times compared with authentic standards and retention indexes reported in literature. 25,26) Mono-terpenoids were quantified using a linear calibration curve for myrcene (yϭ 6945.1x; r 2 ϭ0.997), sesquiterpenoids with a-humulene (yϭ 7529.5x; r 2 ϭ0.998), and cannabinoids with D…”

“…(±)-4-Terpineol has also been reported in a number of publications, without any indication of stereochemistry. 32 Cadinol has been reported as the epi-α-isomer (τ-cadinol); 33 however based on GC-MS library data, 27 5 and 11 were identified as α-cadinol esters. γ-Eudesmol has been reported before.…”
