Chemistry & Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Beta-Caryophyllene is used in green, spicy and woody accords for a deepening effect.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Several plants contain a large amount of beta-Caryophyllene. Copahu Resinoid contains more than 50% beta-Caryophyllene. Clove Leaf EO contains 5 to 17% and Clove Bud EO contains 5 to 12%, among others. These plants can be used to extract natural beta-Caryophylene.
Isomerism :
In perfumery, the most used Caryophyllene is beta-Caryophyllene. When the unsaturation of this molecule is delocalized, alpha-Caryophyllene (alpha-humulene) and gamma-Caryophyllene have a smell quite similar to the beta isomer: terpenic and sweet at the same time. Valencene is a constitutional isomer of beta-Caryophyllene, although, its smell is more citrus and green.
Synthesis precursor :
Beta-Caryophyllene can be a precursor to the synthesis of other terpenes, by a Diels-Alder reaction for example.
Synthesis route :
Beta-Caryophyllene 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, Caryophylene can be synthesized from isoprene, or other easily obtainable terpenes, to shorten the synthesis.
Stability :
Terpenes tend to polymerize by oxydation. Not to be used in very alkaline bases as soap.
