Camphor oil is obtained by steam distillation of the wood of the camphor tree Cinnamomum camphora Sieb. (Lauraceae) growing in China, Taiwan, and Japan. The main constituent of the crude oil is camphor (ca. 50%), which can be separated by crystallization on cooling and subsequent centrifugation. Fractionation of the mother liquor gives two oils ...

Cyclopentane bicyclic monoterpenoids that occur in the plant kingdom belong to three major skeletal types camphane, iso-camphane, and fenchane (Fig. 7). Camphane-type terpenoid alcohols, (+)-bomeol (Gl) and (—)-isobomeol (G2), have been isolated from Cinnamomum camphora (Lauraceae) and Achillea filipendulina (Asteraceae). A ketone derived from these, (-h)-camphor (G3), is found in the camphor tree Cinnamomum camphora) and in the leaves of rosemary Rosmarinus officinalis) and sage Salvia officinalis, Labiatae). Camphene (G4) and its enantiomer with the isocamphane carbon skeleton are known to occur in the oils of citronella and turpentine. Fenchane-type bicyclic cyclopentane monoterpenoids are commonly found in plants as their ketone derivatives. (—)-Fenchone (G5) occurs in the tree of life Thuja occidentalis, Cupres-saceae). Its enantiomer, (+)-fenchone (G6), has been isolated from the oil of fennel Foeniculum vulgare, Umbelliferae).

CAMPHOR The drug from the essential oil, obtained by steam distillation of the wood from Cinnamomum camphora (L.), J.Presl, belonging to the family Lauraceae, a high tree that is cultivated mainly in Taiwan. The production of natural camphor (optically active) has been replaced by synthetic camphor (racemate), which is synthesized from a-pinene (from turpentine oil).

Camphor (KAM-for) is also known as gum camphor 2-camphanone i,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.i]heptan-2-one and i,7,7-trimethylhicyclo[2-2-i]-2-heptanone, among others. It is a volatile white waxy substance with a strong, characteristic odor and a hitter, cooling taste. Its odor has been described as fragrant, aromatic, pungent, or penetrating, similar to that of mothballs. The compound is obtained from the camphor tree, Cinnamomum camphora, which is native to many parts of the world, including the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra, as well as China, Taiwan, Japan, and Brazil.

Naturally occurring camphanes include the bomeols with an endo hydroxy group, the isobomeols with an exo OH and 2-camphanone (2-bonanone) referred to as camphor. (+)-Bomeol from the camphor tree Cinnamomum camphora (Lauraceae) and from the roots of ginger-like Curcuma aromatica (Zingiberaceae), both of which grow in Eastern Asia, is known as Borneo camphor. (-)-Isobomeol was isolated from Achillea filipendulina (Asteraceae). 

Among these preparations are a few, which have found their way into Western pharmacology. These include extracts from the camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora), from hemp (Cannabis sativa), from various Rauwolfia species (e.g. reserpine), from ginseng (Panax quiti-quefolium and Panax schinseng) and from Ma-huang (Ephedra sinica).
