Two types of chamomile (camomile) are commonly employed in herbal medicine, Roman chamomile Chamaemelum nobile (formerly Anthemis nobilis) (Compositae/Asteraceae), and German chamomile Matricaria chamomilla (Chamomilla recutica) (Compositae/Asteraceae). German chamomile, an annual plant, is the more important commercially, and is often called matricaria to distinguish it from the perennial Roman chamomile. Both plants are cultivated...

Aliphatic esters in various combinations play a major part in many flavors, particularly fruit flavors 441), Hexyl acetate develops the strongest and most typical odor in Cox s Orange Pippin apples (279). Hexyl 2-methylbutyrate contributes highly to the flavor of Golden Delicious apples (265). Methyl and ethyl esters of ( )-3-hexenoic, (Z)-4-decenoic (32) and )- and (Z)-4-octenoic acids have some importance in the flavor of pineapple 408). Methyl (Z)-4-decenoate (32) and methyl thiohexanoate account for about 56% of the odor provided by the components of the oxygenated fraction of hop oil 202). Ethyl (jE, Z)-2,4-decadienoate (35) is considered as the character impact compound in the aroma of Bartlett pears (227) (Table 2). The application of this pear ester in reconstitution work has been facilitated by the development of highly stereospecific syntheses 405, 407, 457). Isobutyl an-gelate is considered as an essential constituent of Roman camomile oil 85). 

One of the most important discoveries recently made in the field of carotenoid aroma compounds relates to the class of damascones. Seven naturally occurring members (266) to (272) of this class are known today. The discovery of these new compounds started with the isolation of damascenone (268) from Bulgarian rose oil in 1970 120). Later, the same compound was detected in various tobacco brands 5, 110, 306), tea 491), raspberry oil 708), cooked apples 442), various grape and wine varieties 546, 549), beer 598), coffee oil 179), buchu leaf oil 283) and Roman camomile 638). 3-Hydroxy-(3-damascone (269) was shown to be an important aroma component of tobacco 108, 169, 285) in which it develops a green, rose-floral and sweet Burley-like note (556). (3-Damascone (267) was found in Burley tobacco 110) and rose oil 108), whereas a-damascone (266), accompanied by (3-compound (267) and damascenone (268), was exclusively observed in tea oil 491). Among the known cyclization products (270) to (272), the last two compounds were found in tobacco (779), while ketone (270) was detected in tea 491).
