The commercial Brazilian Cabore oil contains 92% of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (23% α‐copaene, 13% germacrene D, 8% β‐caryophyllene, 8% δ‐cadinene, 8% germacrene B) and only 4% of functionalized sesquiterpenes. 6,12‐Epoxyspiroax‐4‐ene and its 11‐epimer were identified by their 1 H‐NMR spectral data. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
