“…5 As far as this similarity is concerned, H. sagittifolia and H. occulta are close from a chemotaxonomic point of view. When the composition of the other quantitatively important components was compared, however, marked differences were observed, notably the occurrence of saussurea lactone, cedrenol and eremophilene in H. occulta, which were not detected in the essential oil of H. sagittifolia.…”

“…Schott, a traditional Chinese medicinal plant known as Qian Nian Jian (from which the drug Rhizoma Homalomenae is derived), have been reported. 5 The latter is considered by some to bear close affinity with H. sagittifolia. The objective of the present work was to determine the essential oil composition of Malaysian H. sagittifolia so as to afford a comparison with that reported for H. occulta.…”

The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of the leaves and rhizomes of Homalomena sagittifolia Jungh. were analysed by capillary GC and GC-MS; 59 constituents were identified in the leaf oil, monoterpene hydrocarbons being the major chemical class with α α α α α-pinene (22.2%) and β β β β β-pinene (17.2%) dominating. Among the sesquiterpenoids present, the most abundant was neointermedeol. The rhizome oil yielded 49 identified constituents and was characterized by a very high level of linalool (61.9%).

“…Previous studies have reported high linalool content in the acetone extract of both rhizomes and the aerial parts of H cochinchinenesis. 7 Linalool was also reported as the major constituent of many Homalomena essential oils such as H aromatica rhizome (62.5%), 11 H aromatica root (58.3%), 12 H occulta rhizome (36.9%), 13 and H sagittifolia rhizome (61.9%). 14 Collectively, linalool is considered one of the chemical markers of the Homalomena genus.…”

In this study, we analyzed the volatile constituents of the n-hexane extract from the rhizomes of Homalomena cochinchinensis Engl. by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). We also investigated the anti-inflammatory, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory, and cytotoxic activities of this extract. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 25 compounds, of which linalool was the primary component (17.6%). The extract significantly inhibited lipopolysaccharide-induced production of nitric oxide in RAW264.7 cells (IC50 = 21.08 ± 1.80 µg/mL); displayed weak cytotoxic activity against SK-LU-1, HepG2, and MCF7 cancer cell lines (IC50 values ranged from 154.60 to 184.25 µg/mL); and exhibited a weak capacity for AChE inhibition (IC50 = 131.10 ± 9.76 µg/mL). This report is the first to examine the volatile components and biological activities of the n-hexane extract from rhizomes of Homalomena cochinchinensis.

“…In particular, the essential oil extracted from H. aromatica rhizomes was composed of 62.5% linalool and 7.08% terpinen-4-ol, 8 whereas the oil extracted from its roots contained 58.3% linalool and 16.7% terpinen-4-ol. 11 Linalool was also the most abundant compound in the essential oils extracted from H. occulta (36.9%) 12 and H. sagittifolia (61.9%) rhizomes. 13 Thus, it is reasonable to consider linalool a "marker" of Homalomena essential oils.…”

In this study, we investigated the chemical composition and potential biological properties of essential oils extracted from the rhizomes of two Homalomena species, H. pendula (Blume) Bakh.f. and H. cochinchinensis Engl. Using GC–MS analysis, we found that H. pendula essential oil contains 59 components while H. cochinchinensis essential oil contains 58. Both essential oils were rich in oxygenated monoterpenes, with linalool and terpinen-4-ol being the most prevalent compounds. Additionally, H. cochinchinensis essential oil exhibited moderate anti-inflammatory activity with an IC50 value of 170.81 ± 11.44 µg/mL, whereas H. pendula essential oil showed moderate activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with an IC50 value of 130.65 ± 1.27 µg/mL. This study is the first to report the chemical composition and biological effects of H. pendula essential oil, as well as the anti-inflammatory effects of H. cochinchinensis essential oil.
