Chemistry & Uses
Year of discovery :
First isolated from hops, hence the name
Natural availability :
This molecule is found in a countless number of essential oils, usually in trace amounts. Among the essential oils concerned, we find the great majority of spices, herbs, woods and citrus.
Isomerism :
Also named alpha-caryophyllene, the alpha-humulene is an isomer of beta-caryophyllene
Synthesis precursor :
Data not available.
Synthesis route :
Alpha-humulene is a sesquiterpene. This means that it has three units of Isoprenes. Isoprene is a five carbon atoms diene, constituting a basis for the synthesis of terpenes by Diels-Alder reactions. Thus, humulene can be synthesized from isoprene, or other easily obtainable terpenes, to shorten the synthesis.
Stability :
Very stable
