Properties and stability
1. Found in flue-cured tobacco leaves.
2. It is found in more than 20 essential oils such as citrus, mint, coriander, nepeta, eucalyptus, and cardamom.
Storage method
Store in a sealed and cool place.
Synthesis method
1. Tobacco: FC, 18.
2. Synthesis: The deterpene product of citrus essential oil is obtained by further vacuum fractionation; or it is obtained by isomerization reaction of pinene in turpentine under acid catalysis.
Purpose
1. Mainly used to prepare artificial lemon and peppermint essential oils.
2. It is difficult to separate and purify terpinene, and it is not easy to obtain pure products. It is rarely used in perfumery and is generally used as an intermediate for synthetic fragrances.
