d2525 0.871–0.882; n20D 1.4880–1.4940; α20D ?45 ° to ?28 °; saponification number: max. 20; soluble in ethanol, solutions are usually turbid.
The major components of the oil are β-sesquiphellandrene and zingiberene.

Chemical Properties

Obtained by steam distillation of dried, ground rhizomes The yield is approximately 0 25 to 1.2% The oil has a warm, spicy, aromatic odor; the oil tends to thicken and darken on exposure to air The oil lacks the pungency of the other derivatives.
