We obtained data regarding the metabolites from flowers, the skin pulp, green beans and peaberry green beans of the robusta coffee plant (Coffea canephora). The beans were processed using a wet-hulled method. The volatile compounds from the flowers were extracted using a solid-phase microextraction. Secondary metabolites from the skin pulp, green beans, and peaberry green beans were extracted by a maceration method using methanol as a solvent. The separation and identification of metabolites were conducted using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The flower's volatile compounds were identified by matching the generated spectra with the NIST14 library as a reference, whereas the metabolites in the skin pulp, green beans, and peaberry green beans were identified using the WILLEY09TH library as a reference. The identified volatile compounds in flowers have been listed in Table 1, and the identified skin pulp, green bean, and peaberry green bean metabolite compounds have been listed in Table 2.
