The dominant active ingredient is 1,8-cineole (also known as eucalyptol). This compound usually makes up 60% to 80% of the total oil content. It is responsible for the plant’s camphoraceous aroma. This is complemented by a variety of terpenoids. These include alpha-terpineol, limonene, terpinen-4-ol, and sabinene. Additionally, the seeds and the surrounding pericarp contain significant levels of compounds. These include phenolic and flavonoids. Most notably protocatechuic acid and quercetin.
