Balsamic odor

Turpentine Oil. The world s largest-volume essential oil, turpentine [8006-64-2] is produced ia many parts of the world. Various species of piaes and balsamiferous woods are used, and several different methods are appHed to obtain the oils. Types of turpentines include dry-distiUed wood turpentine from dry distillation of the chopped woods and roots of pines steam-distilled wood turpentine which is steam-distilled from pine wood or from solvent extracts of the wood and sulfate turpentine, which is a by-product of the production of sulfate ceUulose. From a perfumery standpoint, steam-distilled wood turpentine is the only important turpentine oil. It is rectified to yield pine oil, yellow or white as well as wood spirits of turpentine. Steam-distilled turpentine oil is a water-white mobile Hquid with a refreshing warm-balsamic odor. American turpentine oil contains 25—35% P-pinene (22) and about 50% a-pinene (44). European and East Indian turpentines are rich in a-pinene (44) withHtfle P-pinene (22), and thus are exceUent raw materials... [Pg.339]

Phenyl-2-propen-l-ol [104-54-1], commonly referred to as cinnamyl alcohol, is a colorless crystalline soHd with a sweet balsamic odor that is reminiscent of hyacinth. Its occurrence in nature is widespread as, for example, in Hyacinth absolute (Hyacinthus orientalis) (42), the leaf and bark oils of cinnamon Cinnamomum cassia, Cinnamomum lancium, etc), and Guava fmit [Psidiumguajava L.) (43). In many cases it is also encountered as the ester or in a bound form as the glucoside. [Pg.175]

Hydrocinnamic alcohol is a slightly viscous, colorless liquid with a blossomy-balsamic odor, slightly reminiscent of hyacinths. Esterification with aliphatic carboxylic acids is important because it leads to additional fragrance and flavor materials. [Pg.100]

R = CH2C6Hs, C14H12O2, Mr 212.25, 6p2.okPa 170-171 °C, df 1.1121, ng 1.5680, is the main component of Peru balsam oil. It occurs in fairly large amounts in a number of blossom concretes and absolutes (e.g., tuberose and hyacinth). It forms either a viscous liquid or solid flakes mp 21 22°C) and has a weak, sweet-balsamic odor. It is prepared either by transesterification of technical methyl benzoate with benzyl alcohol, or from benzyl chloride and sodium benzoate. A third process starts with benzaldehyde which is converted in high yield into benzyl benzoate in the presence of sodium or aluminum benzylate (Tishchenko reaction). [Pg.120]

Methyl cinnamate is a colorless crystalline solid mp 36.5 °C) with a fruity, sweet-balsamic odor. In addition to the common esterification methods, it can be prepared by Claisen condensation of benzaldehyde and methyl acetate in the presence of sodium. Methyl cinnamate is used in soap perfumes, as well as in blossom and oriental perfumes, and is sometimes added to aromas. [Pg.121]

Benzoe Siam resinoid is a reddish to light brown, viscous liquid with a long-lasting, chocolate-like, sweet, balsamic odor. It is used in perfumery for balsamic nuances and as a fixative [9000-72-0], [84012-39-5]. [Pg.177]

Myrrh resinoids are obtained in 20-45% yield by extracting the gum with suitable solvents (e.g., toluene, hexane). They are wax-like, brown-yellow to red-brown masses with a balsamic odor and an aromatic bitter taste. Specifications depend on the solvents used. [Pg.207]

Olibanum oil and olibanum resinoid are obtained from frankincense, which is a gum resin collected from the bark of the tree Boswellia carterii Birdw. or B. frereana Birdw. (Burseraceae) growing in Arabia and Somalia. The resinoid is produced by solvent extraction, and steam distillation gives the oil, which is a pale yellow, slightly viscous liquid with a balsamic odor and a faint lemon note. [Pg.209]

Opopanax oil and opopanax resinoid are obtained from the resin of Commiphora erythraea Engl. var. glabrescens Engl., a tree growing in Somalia (Burseraceae). The resinoid is prepared by solvent extraction, and steam distillation of the resin gives the essential oil, which is a yellow to greenish-yellow liquid with a warm, sweet, balsamic odor. [Pg.209]

Patchouli oil is produced by steam distillation of the dried leaves of Pogostemon cablin (Blanco) Benth. (Lamiaceae). It is a reddish-brown to greenish-brown, more or less viscous liquid with a characteristic, slightly camphoraceous, woody balsamic odor. [Pg.212]

Peru balsam oil is obtained by distillation of the balsam of the tree Myroxylon pereira (Royle) Klotzsch (Fabaceae), called peru balsam. It is a yellow to pale brown, slightly viscous liquid, which may form crystals. The oil has a rather sweet, balsamic odor. [Pg.213]

Canadian fir needle oil (balsam fir oil) is produced in Canada and in several northern states of the United States from needles and twigs of Abies balsamea (L.) Mill. It is an almost colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant balsamic odor. [Pg.215]

Dwarf pine-needle oil is obtained in Austria (Tyrol) and other mountainous areas of central and southeast Europe by steam distillation of fresh needles and twig tips of Pinus mugo Turra subsp. mugo Zenan and subsp. pumilio (Haenke) Franco. It is a colorless liquid with a pleasant, balsamic odor. [Pg.215]

Steam distillation of the balsam gives styrax oil, a light yellow liquid that contains a relatively large amount of cinnamic acid, which partially crystallizes [783]. Styrax oil has a sweet-balsamic odor with a styrene-like top note. It is used in perfumery in flowery compositions, [8024-01-9], [94891-27-7], [94891-28-8]. [Pg.220]
