Some of the molecules such as Cinnamaldehyde, (E)-, Benzoic acid, 4-isopropyl-, ethyl ester, Undecanoic acid, 10-methyl-, methyl ester, Caryophyllene oxide, Tridecanoic acid, 12-methyl-, methyl ester, 1-Heptatriacotanol, .beta.-Sitosterol, 5H-Cyclopropa(3,4)benz(1,2-e)azulen-5-one, 1,1a-.alpha.,1b-.beta.,4,4a,7a-.alpha.,7b,8,9,9a-decahydro-4a-.beta.,7b-.alpha.,9a-.alpha.-trihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,1,6,8-.alpha.-tetramethyl-, 9a-isobutyrate, trans(2-Chlorovinyl)triethylsilane indicated many medicinal roles which correspond to that of GugguluPanchapalamChurnam.
