Thujyl alcohols

Thujyl alcohol, Cj Hj OH, occurs in the oils of wormwood and thuja leaves, etc., and also results from the reduction of its ketone, thujone, by means of sodium. It is identical with the body originally described by Semmler under the name tanacetyl alcohol. 

Paolini has separated from the reduction products of thujone the acid phthalate of / -thujyl alcohol, HOOC. C H. COO. Cj(,Hjj, melting at 120°, and having a specific rotation -t- 91 27°. This body yields a silver salt which melts at 85° to 86°, and a strychnine salt melting at 177° to 178°. On saponifying the phthalate y8-thujyl alcohol results, which has the following characters —... 

Tschujaeff and Fromm have shown that by the recrystallisation of the cinchonine salt of the phthalic acid ester, and hydrolysis of the crystal- line salt, [Pg.134]

The more soluble cinchonine salt remaining in the mother liquors, gave a laevo-rotatory thujyl alcohol, but the highest rotation obtained was - 9-12°. 

On oxidation with permanganate of potassium it yields sabinol-glycerine, CjoH,5(011)3, melting at 152° to 153°, and by further oxidation, tanacetogene-dicarboxylic acid, CpHj Og, melting at 140°. On reduction with sodium and amyl alcohol, sabinol yields thujyl alcohol, CjoHj OH.

Free Alcohols alone.—In this case the content in free alcohols (borneol, geraniol, terpineol, linalool, menthol, citronellol, santalol, thujyl alcohol) is determined by transforming the alcohols into the corresponding acetates by boiling with acetic anhydride and then determining the saponification number of the acetylated product acetyl saponification number).

Composition of the essential oil Mainly a- and P-thujone, thujyl alcohol and thujyl acetate respectively [301 ]. Some chemotypes contain cis- and trans-epoxyocimene, sabinyl and chrysanthenyl acetate, chrysanthenol as main components [302]. For latest literature see [303]. 

Absinthii aetheroleum (2). After treatment with PMS reagent the essential oil shows in system 2 seven to eight blue terpene zones in the R, range 0.15 up to the solvent front. A major zone of thujyl alcohols (thujol) is followed by The violet-blue thujone zone at R, 0.45 (T3) and thujyl esters and terpenehydrocarboiis at the solvent front.

The 4 isomeric thujyl alcohols also have different hi /-values [177]. The sequence found, using chamber saturation and triple development with benzene-chloroform (50 + 50), was isothujyl alcohol (h.Rf 47), thujyl alcohol (50), neothujyl alcohol (57) and neoisothujyl alcohol (67) [264].

Thujyl alcohol appears to be formed at the expense of the thujone present as the giowtb of the plant proceeds. Two oils examined by Charabot, which had been distilled at an earlier and a later date from the same plantation, gave the following results —... 

Paolini and Lomonaco find that the Italian oil contains 10 per cent, of a mixture of alpha and beto-thujone, which are identified by means of their semicarbazones, and about 48 per cent, of thujyl alcohol, which was separated in the form of its phthalic acid ester. Phellandrene was also isolated as its nitrosite, melting at 105, and cadinene was separated in the form of its hydrochloride. Thujyl alcohol is present in the free state, and also in the form of acetic, isovalerianic, and palmitic esters. At least two isomeric thujyl alcohols are present including the delta-variety. 

Artemisia arborescens yields about 0-6 per cent, of a deep blue essential oil of specific gravity about 0-946, acid value 9 8, and ester value 19 5. According to Jona it contains 13 9 per cent, of alcohols, of which borneol and thujyl alcohol have been identified, and about 13 per cent, of thujone. As constituents of the esters there were found formic, acetic, isovalerianic, pelargonic, palmitic, and stearic acids.
