The following compounds were shown to be present in both extracts: [alpha]-longipinene, copaene, longicyciene, longifolene, [beta]-ylangene [beta]-copaene, [alpha]-, [gamma]- and [epsilon]-muurolene, - and [delta]-cadinene, calamehene, [alpha]a-calacorene, [delta]-cadinol, pimaradiene, isopimaradiene, pimarinol, isopimarinol, abietinol, pimarinal, isopimarinal, abietinal, dehydroabietinal,[beta]-sitosterol, and a mixture of fatty alcohols. Eugenol methyl ether, pinosylvin dimethyl ether, a new sesquiterpene alcohol and 3 unidentified diterpene hydrocarbons were isolated from the infested wood,.
