Properties and stability
1. Use and store according to specifications. It will not decompose and avoid contact with oxides.
2. Chemical properties: It is an extremely stable compound. It does not decompose under normal pressure distillation and does not interact with reducing agents. Reacts with hydrogen bromide to form the adduct C8H18O·HBr (m.p. 56~57℃). When oxidized with potassium permanganate, cineoleic acid (m.p. 204~206℃) is generated. Addition products can also be generated with phenols and phosphoric acid.
3. Found in flue-cured tobacco leaves, burley tobacco leaves, and oriental tobacco leaves.
4. Naturally found in eucalyptus globulus oil, rosemary oil, camphor oil, bay leaf oil, etc.
Storage method
Save in a sealed container at 2-8°C, placed in a ventilated, dry place, and avoid contact with other oxides.
Synthesis method
1. Cineole is widely present in natural aromatic oils and is the main component of eucalyptus oil. Cineole can be isolated from aromatic oils. For example, fractionate eucalyptus oil, collect the 175-180°C fraction, and refine it slightly. If you need to manufacture products with higher purity, the cineole obtained by fractionation from aromatic oil can be cooled and dried by passing it through HCI. Separate the hydrochloric acid and cineole crystals, use hot water to decompose the crystals, and then distill them to obtain pure cineole. The synthesis method is to convert terpine into acid and then dehydrate it.
2. From eucalyptus oil, eucalyptus globulus oil and other essential oils containing more eucalyptol, the 170-180℃ distillate is obtained by freezing or fractionating under freezing.
Refining method: After recrystallizing the adduct formed by cineole, resorcinol, catechol, etc. with petroleum ether, it is refined by steam distillation. You can also dilute cineole with an equal volume of petroleum ether, then saturate it with hydrogen bromide, filter out the precipitate, wash it with a small amount of petroleum ether and put it into water for stirring, and cineole can be regenerated.
3. Tobacco: BU, 9; OR, 26; FC, 18.
Purpose
1. GB 2760-96 stipulates that food spices are allowed to be used. Mainly used in cough drops, artificial mints, etc. 2. is one of the inherent components of lavender oil and spike lavender oil. It is the preparation of this A must-have fragrance for essential oils. Appropriate amounts can be used in herbal flavors such as lavender, fresh mowing and fragrant spices to increase the freshness. Used in medicated soaps, sprays or cosmetic essences and other hygiene products, such as toothpaste, etc., to have a bactericidal effect. It can be used as a masking agent for bad odor in industrial products. Also used in food flavors. 3. Used in the preparation of oral flavors and the manufacture of pharmaceutical products, as a food additive , Japan’s “Official Convention on Food Additives” stipulates that the purity of cineole is above 85% and cannot be used for purposes other than flavoring.
