Abstract
The chemical composition of the fruit oils are reported for Mangifera indica L., cultivar ‘Langra,’ cultivar ‘Bombay’ and cultivar ‘Desi’ from India. The oils were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The oil of cultivar ‘Langra’ was characterized by δ-3-carene (61.7%) as major constituent. The oil of cultivar ‘Bombay’ was found to contain α-pinene (26.6%), caryophyllene oxide (14.5%) and humulene oxide (5.3%). The oil of cultivar ‘Desi’ had considerable p-cymen-8-ol (28.6%) and moderate amounts of δ-3-carene (5.7%).Keywords
