Abstract
The volatile constituents of ambarella (Spondias cytherea Sonnerat) fruit were isolated by vacuum distillation with subsequent extraction of the distillate with dichloromethane. The concentrated extract was analysed by capillary GC and GCβMS. The volatile constituents of the green (unripe) and ripe fruits were very similar, being dominated by C~6~ compounds and monoterpene hydrocarbons, with (E)βhexβ2βenal and Ξ±βpinene constituting the two major components. The ripe fruit, however, gave a higher yield of total volatiles and a greater number of minor constituents which were mostly esters.
