Cinnamomum tamala leaf (CTL), also known as Indian bay leaf, is used all over the world for seasoning, flavoring, and medicinal purposes. These characteristics could be explained by the presence of several essential bioactive substances and lipid derivatives. In this work, rapid screening and identification of the chemical compounds in supercritical (SC)-CO2 extracts of CTL by use of UPLC-Q-TOF-MSE with a multivariate statistical analysis approach was established in both negative and positive mode. A total of 166 metabolites, including 66 monocarboxylic fatty acids, 52 dicarboxylic fatty acids, 27 fatty acid amides, and 21 cinnamic acid derivatives, were tentatively identified based on accurate mass and the mass spectrometric fragmentation pattern, out of which 142 compounds were common in all SC-CO2 extracts of CTL. Further, PCA and cluster hierarchical analysis clearly discriminated the chemical profile of analyzed extracts and allowed the selection of SC-CO2 extract rich in fatty acids, fatty acid amides, and other bioactive constituents. The result showed that the higher number of compounds was detected in CTL4 (300 bar/55 °:C) extract than the other CTL extracts. The mono- and di-carboxylic fatty acids, fatty acid amides, and cinnamic acid derivatives were identified in CTL for the first time. UPLC-Q-TOF-MSE combined with chemometric analysis is a powerful method to rapidly screen the metabolite profiling to justify the quality of CTL as a flavoring agent and in functional foods.
