Utilisation

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
