Abstract :
In the present study, the volatile compounds identified in the essential oil from the flowers of Terminalia ivorensis A. Chev (Combretaceae) collected from Kaduna, Northern Nigeria, are reported. Essential oils were obtained using hydrodistllation in a Clevengertype apparatus. The yield of the light yellow oil was found to be 0.22% (v/w, dry weight basis). The content and composition of the oil were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC-FID) and gas chromatography with electron impact mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The main compounds of the oil were δ-3-carene (29.4%) and α-pinene (20.9%). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the essential oil constituents of any part of T. ivorensis.
