Eperua oleifera Ducke (Fabaceae) Oilresin Chemical Composition and the Isolation of a Natural Diterpenic Acid Methyl Ester. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
Eperua oleifera (Fabaceae) oilresin presents not only diterpenic acids, but also diterpenic acid methyl ester. ABSTRACT Eperua oleifera Ducke, commonly known as “copaíba‐jacaré,” produces oilresins traditionally used in folk medicine for wound healing and as antifungal and antibacterial agents, similar to those of Copaifera species.

Copaifera multijuga, Copaifera pubiflora and Copaifera trapezifolia Oleoresins: Chemical Characterization and in vitro Cytotoxic Potential against Tumoral Cell Lines

Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society, 2020
Copaifera species (Fabaceae) comprises approximately 70 species of large trees, from which 16 can be found in Brazil. The oleoresins obtained from their trunk are widely used in Brazilian folk medicine, which display important antitumoral potential. Chemically, these oleoresins are mainly composed of a mixture of sesquiterpenes and diterpenes.
