Teak wood has chemical compounds that can be used for pharmaceutical and textile industries, in addition, this compounds are related to resistance to biodeterioration, color and modification processes. Heartwood and sapwood of T. grandis (teak), 15 years-old, were characterized by Py-CG/MS analysis and syringyl (S)/guaiacyl (G) ratio was evaluated. Heartwood and sapwood were pyrolyzed at 550 °C and 62 and 51 compounds were identified from them, respectively. The acetic acid (10%) and levoglucosan (26.65%) were the most abundant compound in the sapwood and heartwood, respectively. The high acetic acid content enhances the use of teak wood to production of artificial essences for perfumery, paints, dyes. While levoglucosan can be used in the manufacture of epoxy resins, antiparasitic and insecticides. The organic compounds identified include 2-methylanthraquinone as one of the main component responsible for the resistance of the teak wood to biological factors (fungi and termites). The syringyl (S)/guaiacyl (G) ratio of heartwood and sapwood was 0.51 and 0.50, respectively
