Orange constituent

Orange constituents have been studied extensively in various disease models for their ability to inhibit inflammation, allergies, blood cholesterol levels, cardiovascular disorders, and cancer. 

Liquid chlorine dioxide, ClOj, boils at 284 K to give an orange-yellow gas. A very reactive compound, it decomposes readily and violently into its constituents. It is a powerful oxidising agent which has recently found favour as a commercial oxidising agent and as a bleach for wood pulp and flour. In addition, it is used in water sterilisation where, unlike chlorine, it does not produce an unpleasant taste. It is produced when potassium chlorate(V) is treated with concentrated sulphuric acid, the reaction being essentially a disproportionation of chloric(V) acid ... 

Of the 10 constituents which represent nearly half the oil of neroH, only linalool (10) can be said to contribute direcdy to the characteristic aroma of orange flower oil. In 1977, IFF chemists performed an in-depth analysis of this oil and identified three simple terpenic compounds, each present at less than 0.01%, a-terpenyl methyl ether [1457-68-0] (31), geranyl methyl ether [2565-82-4] (32), andhnalyl methyl ether [60763-44-2] (33) (11). The latter two compounds possess green floral-citms aromas and have been known to perfumery for some time a-terpenyl methyl ether (31) has been called the orange flower ether by IFF chemists owing to its characteristic odor.

In oxygenated water of near neutral pH and at or slightly above room temperature, hydrous ferric oxide [FelOHla] forms on steel and cast irons. Corrosion products are orange, red, or brown and are the major constituent of rust. This layer shields the underl3dng metal surface from oxygenated water, so oxygen concentration decreases beneath the rust layer. 

Terpenes are commonly employed for diluting lemon, orange, and bergamot oils. The addition lowers the specific gravity, increases the optical rotation, and lowers the proportion of oxygenated constituents. Terpinolene, a by-product in the manufacture of terpineol, has been detected in some oils, notably citronella and spike, lavender. It can be detected by its odour in the fractionated oils. 

The red tetrasulfide radical anion 84 has been proposed as a constituent of sulfur-doped alkali hahdes, of alkah polysulfide solutions in DMF [84, 86], HMPA [89] and acetone [136] and as a product of the electrochemical reduction of 8s in DM80 or DMF [12]. However, in all these cases no convincing proof for the molecular composition of the species observed by either E8R, Raman, infrared or UV-Vis spectroscopy has been provided. The problem is that the red species is formed only in sulfur-rich solutions where long-chain polysulfide dianions are present also and these are of orange to red color, too (for a description of this dilemma, see [89]). Furthermore, the presence of the orange radical anion 8e (see below) cannot be excluded in such systems. 

An orange-brown stain forms on the inside of a pan while cooking a curry. The colour represents molecules adsorbed from the constituent spices of the curry. 

Evidence of repellent properties in camip, Nepeta cataria, to flies and cockroaches was observed in preliminary studies.This study compared catnip essential oil obtained by steam distillation and elemol (Fig. 8), a major constituent of osage orange essential oil, to current commercial repellents. These comparative studies found both the camip steam distillate and elemol to be as good, and in some cases better, at repelling house... 

Petitgrain oils are obtained by steam distillation of the leaves of citrus trees. The oils derived from the bitter orange tree are the most important. Other petitgrain oils (mandarinier, citronnier, and bergamottier) are less important. Petitgrain oil mandarinier is a source of natural methyl A -methylanthranilate, which is present at a concentration of nearly 50%. Petitgrain oils are essential constituents of eau de cologne. 

Tuberose absolute is obtained by solvent extraction, via the concrete, from the blossoms of Polianthes tuberosa L. (Agavaceae). The plants are cultivated in Egypt and India. Tuberose absolute was formerly produced in southern France by enfieurage. It is an orange to brown liquid with a sweet-narcotic blossom odor and is used in modern, flowery perfume compositions. Its main constituents are esters of benzoic acid [801, 802], FCT 2000 (38, suppl. 3) p. S231, [8024-05-3], [94334-35-7],... 

Methyl anthranilate 172 (Structure 4.51) is found in the oils of sweet orange, lemon, mandarin, bergamot, neroli and ylang-ylang oils and jasmine and tuberose absolutes. Methyl N-methyl anthranilate 173 is the main constituent of mandarin petit grain oil, and occurs also in bitter orange, mandarin and rue oils. 

Nootkatone is an important constituent from grapefruit flavour. It is synthesised by oxidation of valencene, which is obtained and isolated from orange peel oil where it occurs at a maximum level of 0.4% [9].
