The ethyl ether of hydroquinone, para oxyphenetol, CgHj(,02, is found to a small extent in oil of star aniseed. It can also be prepared artificially by heating para-diazophenetol sulphate with dilute sulphuric acid, or by boiling hydroquinone with ethyl iodide and potassium hydroxide under a reflux condenser. Its constitution is—... [Pg.259]

Both aniseed and star-anise are used as spices and for distillation of anise oil. Besides the main ingredient anethole, it contains a polymeric product, dianethole, with oestrogenic effects. Aniseed has been reputed to increase milk secretion, promote menstruation, facilitate childbirth and increase libido. Aniseed is reported to be expectorant, carminative and exert sympathomimetic-type effects. These effects are attributed to anethole. The expectorant effect of aniseed oil is experimentally verified by measuring the amount of secretion from an upper respiratory tract and measuring its viscosity. In therapeutic doses, anethole is reported to cause minimal hepatotoxicity. [Pg.124]

It will be noticed that the specific gravity is abnormally low, and does not correspond with pharmacopoeial requirements, while the melting, and congealing-points are also very low. The refractive index is lower than has ever been found for pure aniseed oil, which has a value between 1-5530 and 1-5565, or thereabouts. The slight deztro-rotation indicatea nothing, as some samples of pure star-anise oil are faintly dextro-rotatory. [Pg.507]
