Eucalyptus olida L.A.S. Johnson & K.D. Hill - Myrtaceae - strawberry gum

Tree, up to 30m high, endemic to a restricted area of New South Wales, Australia; bark fibrous, flaky; young leaves blueish green, elliptic; adult leaves alternate, dull green, lanceolate to narrow lanceolate; flowers white; fruit a woody, bell-shaped capsule. „Eucalyptus olida belongs to the blue-leaved ashes and has the peppermint-type bark of E. andrewsii and E. consideniana, with fruit more like E. andrewsii subsp. andrewsii, from which it differs in the methyl cinnamate oil of the leaves, that normally can be detected as a unpleasant odour when the fresh leaves are crushed.“

„Steam distillation of the leaf of a New England blackbutt, Eucalyptus sp. nov. aff. campanulata gave an essential oil rich in E-methyl cinnamate with trans-β-ocimene as minor component and methyl 2-methyl butyrate, α-pinene, cis-β-ocimene, Z-methyl cinnamate and α, β and γ-eudesmol as trace constitutents. Interpopulational studies showed a 2-6 percent range in oil yield with 94-99% E-methyl cinnamate content.“

methyl cinnamate (E)-methyl cinnamate (sweet balsam fruity)

Extracts (petrol ether) of Eucalyptus olida leaves and stems from 3-5 year old trees in a trial planting contained very high levels (>91% of oil yield) of methyl cinnamate, but some trees had low (0%) or variable levels (0-21%).

„(E)-methyl cinnamate, accounted for 99.4% of the essential oils of E. oilda, although 19 compounds were identified.“
