Abstract
ABSTRACT The volatile constituents of Averrhoa bilimbi L. fruit were isolated by steam distillation with subsequent extraction of the distillate with dichloromethane. The concentrated extract was analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS. Fifty-three components were identified, aliphatic acids accounting for 47.8% of the total volatiles with hexadecanoic acid (20.4%) and (Z)-9-octadecenoic acid predominating. Among the 12 esters found butyl nicotinate (1.6%) and hexyl nicotinate (1.7%) were dominant.
