Recent studies have shown that some monoterpenes exert anxiolytic- and depressant-like actions, however, these effects from monoterpene 1,4-cineole are still unknown. This work aimed to study the effects of 1,4-cineole in classic animal models for depression- and anxiety-like behavior, specifically

1. The metabolism of 1,4-cineole, a monoterpene ether, was studied in the rabbit. 2. Four neutral and one acidic metabolites were isolated from the urine and shown to be 9-hydroxy-1,4-cineole, 3,8-dihydroxy-1,4-cineole, 8,9-dihydroxy-1,4-cineole, 1,4-cineole-8-en-9-ol and 1,4-cineole-9-carboxylic acid.
