Essential Oils from Bolivia II. Asteraceae:Ophryosporus heptanthus(Wedd.) H. Rob. et King
(Taylor & Francis, 2004) Javier Bernardo Lopez Arze; Guy J. Collin; François-Xavier Garneau; France-Ida Jean; Hélène Gagnon
Abstract The essential oil of the aerial parts of Ophryosporus heptanthus (Asteraceae) from Bolivia was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The oil was characterized by a high percentage of santolinatriene (∼ 47%) and the presence of precocene II (∼ 8%) as the most important minor constituent. The other compounds were monoterpenes (∼ 16%), with p-cymene as the major compound (∼ 4.8%), sesquiterpenes (∼ 6%), oxygenated sesquiterpenes (∼ 8%) and oxygenated monoterpenes (∼ 4.5%).

Oxygenated monoterpenes accounted for 14 % and monoterpenes for 11%.

Abstract The essential oil of the aerial parts of Zanthoxylum coco (Rutaceae) from Bolivia was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The oil was characterized by a high percentage of santolinatriene (≈ 28%) and monoterpene derivatives: α- and β-pinenes (≈ 5% each). The other compounds belong to the monoterpene (≈ 5.7%), sesquiterpene (≈ 5%) and oxygenated sesquiterpene (≈ 3%) group.
Essential Oils from Bolivia. VI. Lamiaceae:Lepechinia graveolens(Reg.) EplingL. floribunda(Benth.) Epling, andL. meyeni(Walp.) Epling
(Taylor & Francis, 2009) Javier Bernardo Lopez Arze; Guy J. Collin; François-Xavier Garneau; France-Ida Jean; Hélène Gagnon
Abstract The chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from three different Lamiaceae, Lepechinia graveolens, L. floribunda and L. meyeni growing in the High Valley Region of Bolivia, Province of Cochabamba, was determined by a combination of GC and GC/MS measurements. Sesquiterpenes dominated in L. graveolens (61%). In the oil of L. meyeni the monoterpenes constituted the most important fraction (ca. 40%) followed by oxygenated sesquiterpenes (ca. 31%). Finally, the composition of the oil of L. floribunda was more complex: sesquiterpenes (20–28%), monoterpenes (21–20%), oxygenated sesquiterpenes (21–23%), and oxygenated monoterpenes (18.5–13%).
Essential Oils from Bolivia. VII. Myrtaceae:Myrcianthes osteomeloides(Rusby) McVaugh andMyrcianthes pseudomato(Legrand) McVaugh
(Taylor & Francis, 2005) Javier Bernardo Lopez Arze; France-Ida Jean; Hélène Gagnon; Guy J. Collin; François-X. Garneau; André Pichette
Abstract The chemical composition of the essential oils of Myrcianthes osteomeloides and M. pseudomato was studied by GC and GC/MS. Myrcianthes osteomeloides oil contained 1,8-cineole (55.7%) as the major component followed by α-pinene (17.9%), α-terpineol (8.5%) and β-pinene (4.6%). We identified 1,8-cineole (24.4%), α-pinene (17.1%), linalool (11.7%), limonene (8.5%) and γ-terpinene (7.3%) as main constituents in M. pseudomato oil.

Abstract The chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from two species of the Piperaceae, Piper heterophyllum and P. aduncum growing in the province of Cochabamba, in the high valley region of Bolivia, was determined by a combination of GC and GC-MS measurements. The composition of the oils from P. heterophyllum and two of the three samples of P. aduncum was dominated by the monoterpenes: 1,8-cineole (40 %), pinenes (α - + β -: 15 %), and β-ocimene (cis + trans : 9 %). Asaricine (9%) is also among the main constituents.

The chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from Gnaphalium viravira growing in the high valley region of Bolivia, Province of Cochabamba, was determined by a combination of GC and GC/MS measurements. The composition of the oil is dominated by non oxygenated terpenes. The main products are limonene, α-copaene, β-caryophyllene, geranyl-α-terpinene, and geranyl- p-cymene. Oxygenated monoterpenes account for less than 10%.
Essential Oils from Bolivia. XI. Verbenaceae :Aloysia gratissima(Gillies & Hook.) Tronc. and Boraginaceae :Cordia chacoensisChodat
(Taylor & Francis, 2013) Javier Bernardo Lopez Arze; Guy J. Collin; François-Xavier Garneau; France-Ida Jean; Hélène Gagnon
The compositions of the essential oil of the aerial parts of Aloysia gratissima and Cordia chacoensis are almost similar. In both cases, oxygenated sesquiterpenes constituted the main group (be- tween 40 and 50 %): 6α-hydroxygermacra-1(10),4-diene being the major compound (∼ 16 %). Sesquiterpenic molecules constitute the second important group (30 – 34 %) with β-caryophyllene as the major compound (8.0 %).
Essential oils from Bolivia. XII. Asteraceae:Ophryosporus piquerioides(D.C.) Benth. ex Baker
(Taylor & Francis, 2013) F.-X. Garneau; Guy J. Collin; France-Ida Jean; Hélène Gagnon; Javier Bernardo Lopez Arze
The essential oils of two samples of Ophryosporus piquerioides (D.C.) Benth. ex Baker growing wild in Bolivia were analyzed to determine their chemical composition. These samples were collected at two different periods of the year and although the same components appear in both samples, the relative percentages show an important variation. Davanone and its isomer isodavanone, (E)-nerolidol and caryophyllene oxide are the main components in both samples A and B: 65 and 30%, respectively. Camphor, borneol, and bornyl acetate are important minor components: 8.0 and 14.2%, respectively. Camphene (2.0 and 2.4%) and β-caryophyllene (3.3 and 6.1%) are the main hydrocarbon compounds. However, the four davana ethers are observed in sample A: almost 7%. Only traces of these compounds are observed in sample B. Finally, 6α-hydroxygermacra-1(10),4-diene and β-davanon-2-ol are noticeable products in sample B (3.1 and 1.9%).
