Abstract
Isopentenyl and dimethylallyl acetates and cinnamates have been found in large amounts in an essential oil obtained from the ripe fruit of P andanus tectorius, their identification has been confirmed by synthesi s. This is the first time that these esters, apart from one, have been found in the plant kingdom and, generally speaking, that monoterpene precursors predominate in an essential oil.
