Rivea ornata seed oil was found to contain 12,13-epoxy-octadec-cis-9-enoic acid (vernolic acid, 22.0%) along with the other normal fatty acids like palmitic acid (24.2%), stearic acid (8.9%), oleic acid (17.1%) and linoleic acid (27.8%). The identification and characterization was based on Fourier transform infrared (FTIR),H-1-NMR, mass spectrometry (MS), gas-liquid chromatography (GLC)-techniques and chemical degradations.
