Abstract

The essential oils of fresh leaves, twigs, and/or fruits of spicebush cultivated in Oregon (field distilled) and Delaware (laboratory distilled) are examined by GC/MS. The oil of leaves of spicebush is notably high in 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one (1.94% in Oregon to 34.83 ± 9.69% in Delaware). β-caryophyllene (15.26% in Oregon to 48.44 ± 1.35% in Delaware), and/or (E)-nerolidol (10.20% in Oregon to 12.05 ± 2.02% in Delaware). The oil of the twigs of spicebush is notably high in 1,8-cineole (45.41 ± 0.35% in Delaware), while the oil of the fruits is notably high in a-phellandrene (64.62 ± 0.66% in Delaware) and β-phellandrene (11.23+0.17% in Delaware).
