French basil

Methylchavicol is the major constituent of oil of basil—Ocimum basilicum (Lamiaceae). As with other phenols this one is a skin irritant, though it is milder than eugenol—a component of the French basil varieties (Home and Williams 1990). 

Aromatherapy can apparently help patients with multiple sclerosis, especially for relaxation, in association with many other changes in the diet and also use of conventional medicines (Barker, 1994). French basil, black pepper, and true lavender in evening primrose oil with borage oil was used to counteract stiffness and also to stimulate this mixture was later changed to include relaxing and sedative oils such as Roman chamomile, ylangylang, and melissa. 

It seems this image was first published in 1599 and again in 1602, where it initially appears in Basil Valentine s often reprinted Twelve Keys (Die zwolf Schlussel) (fig. 9). An illustrated Latin translation, Duodecim Claves, was published in 1618 by Michael Maier, with improved engravings attributed to Mathieu Merian, and was included in his anthology Tripus Aureus, Hoc est, Tres Tractatus Chymici Selectissimi. A French translation of this popular work... 

The French or sweet basil has a high linalool and lower methyl chavicol content with the exotic basil having the highest methyl chavicol content. It is for this reason that the sweet is often preferred for aromatherapy. Principal chemical components found in essential oils of basil include methyl chavicol (22-88%), methyl eugenol (0.3-6%), linalool (1.1 6%), limonene (2.0 4.9%), cis-ocimene (0.2-2.6%) and citronellol (0.6-3.9%).

During 2003 we saw the first published process based on ILs [6], In its BASIL process (see Section 5.3.2), BASF has disclosed the involvement of an imidazolium-based ionic-liquid in the production of alkoxyphenylphosphines. This constitutes an impressive demonstration that IL technology can result in significant financial savings. Another process said to be poised for licensing is the French Petroleum Institute s butene dimerization process, the Difasol process (see Section 5.3.1). Besides these, some more promising applications are currently under investigation, and are hoped to be disclosed in the near future. Notable examples of research areas are in electrochemistry (batteries), biocatalysis, and the application of ILs in extraction processes, e.g., the deep desulfurization of diesel oil.
