Constituents of Peppers: IV. The Hydrocarbons of Pepper Essential Oil

Abstract
Twenty-six hydrocarbons were identified in the essential oil of black pepper. Three of these are sesquiterpenes which have not been reported previously as occurring in this oil (β-cubebene, α-guaiene and γ-cadinene). Some other hydrocarbon constituents mentioned in the literature were absent in our pepper oil.
