synonyms :
botanical : cinnamomum tejpata
french : laurier des indes
german : indisches lorbeerblatt, mutterzimt
greek (old) : malabathron
hindi : tej-patta, tejpat
latin : malabathrum
maithili : patrak
marathi : tamal patra
tamil :talishapattiri, ilavangapattiri, pattai
urdu : tez pat
used plant part : leaves. The bark may be used as an inferior substitute of cinnamon or cassia
plant family : lauraceae (laurel family)
sensory quality : strongly aromatic, somewhat reminiscent to cinnamon or cloves
main constituents :
in the essential oil from the leaves, mostly monoterpenoides were found: linalool (50%) is the major compound, whereas α-pinene, p-cymene, β-pinene and limonene range around 5 to 10% each. Phenylpropanoids appear only in traces: newer work reports 1% cinnamic aldehyde and no eugenol, whereas older literature speaks of traces of both compounds
origin : south slopes of the himalayas and the mountains of north eastern india, extending into burma
etymology : the sanskrit name tamalapattra means dark leaf, although that seems poorly motivated. Greek traders took that name to their own language, but falsely identified the sanskrit word as a plural form with definite article, (to) malabathra for which they backformed a singular (to) malabathron. This name was then taken by the romans as malabathrum or malobathrum.
