The purpose of this research is to study the effect of fractional diatillation of cananga flower from Boyolalion the ester number and the oil properties. The properties were then evalw;ited based on the Ifido1U.1Bian Industrial Starrdard requirement for cananga oil. The fint (ractiOn was obtained during the fint 0 - 6 houn distilling time, the second fraction was from 6 - 10 houn, and third fraction '(rOm 11 - 15 hours." .The raulta showed that the ester number of oil ('r(lctiom and the refractive index of the second and third fractions have met with the 1ndonesian Industrial Standard requirement. The speci(ie gravity of oil fractions, hOwever, have not met with that standa~ 'ester number of the fint fraction had a higher value than that ot the secorid fraction, and gradually lower value for• the third fraction. It was found from this study- that the lint fraction obtained from cananga oil distillation renders the highest quality oil.
