Essential Oils from Four Piper Species
ÐThe essential oils from Piper capense, P. nigrum, P. guineense and P. umbellatum from S. Tome e Prõ ncipe were investigated for the ®rst time. They were analysed by GC, GC-mass spectrometry and C NMR. Monoterpene hydrocarbons were the main group of constituents in three of the samples (P. capense, P. nigrum and P. umbellatum), whereas for the other species (P. guineense) phenylpropanoid deri...

متن کاملEvaluation of Chemical Composition and Antileishmanial and Antituberculosis Activities of Essential Oils of Piper Species.
Essential oils from fresh Piperaceae leaves were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and a total of 68 components were identified. Principal components analysis results showed a chemical variability between species, with sesquiterpene compounds predominating in the majority of species analyzed. The composition of the essential oil of Piper...
