Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Eugenol is used in ambery, vanillic, carnation, rose and spicy notes. Brings a spicy and vanillic touch to floral notes.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Eugenol is present up to more than 90% in Clove Bud EO and in Cinnamon Leaf EO. These raw materials enable an easy extraction of Eugenol in its natural state.
Isomerism :
Isoeugenol is an isomer of Eugenol, as the double bond present on the two molecules is simply relocated from one molecule to another. However, its smell is fruity and less woody and vanillic. In addition, ortho and meta-Eugenol exist but are very little used in perfumery. For example, the smell of meta-Eugenol is quite similar to Eugenol, and has a strong aspect of carnation. Frambinone® and Styrallyl acetate are also constitutional isomers of Eugenol although they have a very different smell: fruity-raspberry for one, and rhubarb for the other.
Synthesis precursor :
Eugenol is a precursor to the synthesis of several compounds of olfactory interest. First of all, it allows to synthesize DihydroEugenol by catalytic hydrogenation. Isoeugenol can be synthesized from its isomer. Finally, an esterification or etherification of the alcohol function allows to obtain various compounds of interest.
Synthesis route :
Eugenol is often obtained by distilling natural raw materials. The essential oils (mainly Clove Bud EO) are placed in an alkaline medium, to isolate the non-phenolic compounds by distillation. After acidifying the medium at low temperature, Eugenol can be obtained by distillation too.
