P-Acorenol

The second chemotype (their Type 1) had, in addition to the Type 0 array, substantial amounts of a-longipinene [297] and an unidentified sesquiterpene alcohol. The third chemotype (their Type 2) was distinguished by the presence of, among other compounds, cedrene isomers, [a-cedrene is shown as 298], and large amounts of the isomeric sesquiterpene alcohols a-acorenol [294] and its P-isomer [295]. The acora-diene isomers [295 and 296] were also identified. Some geographic patterning was observed in the Type 0 chemotype when the data were subjected to numerical analysis a trend in the reduction of caryophyllene content was revealed in a west to east direction. The data sets for Types 1 and 2 were too small to allow for similar analysis.
