Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Santalol is mainly used to support or replace the use of natural Sandalwood. Its dry, creamy, and slightly smoky facets help recreate the heart of sandalwood essential oil. With the advent of biotechnological processes, it is now easier to use natural Santalol at reasonable costs.
Year of discovery :
The molecular structures of (Z)-Alpha-santalol and (Z)-Beta-santalol were uncovered by Firmenich chemists, Semmler in 1910 for the Alpha and Ruzicka in 1935 for the Beta
Natural availability :
Santalol is found in Sandalwood Spicatum EO and Sandalwood Album EO. The respective concentrations are: For Spicatum: (Z)-Alpha-santalol (15 - 25%) (Z)-Beta-santalol (5 - 20%) Epi-Beta-santalol (0.5 -3 .5%) For the Album: (Z)-Alpha-santalol (41 - 55%) (Z)-Beta-santalol (16 - 24%) It can also be found in trace amounts (< 0.5%) in some oils of Murraya koenigii and Salvia officinalis.
Isomerism :
Santalol is a compound containing two anomers: (Z)-Alpha-santalol and (Z)-Beta-santalol.
Synthesis precursor :
Since 2020, a product containing santalols and bergamotols has been marketed under the name Dreamwood®.
Synthesis route :
Santalol can be synthetized from Sandalwood album EO or Sandalwood spicatum EO. Recently, new biotechnological processes have been employed for the synthesis of Santalol: - Isobionics® Santalol (BASF): Glucose is fermented by a modified strain of Rhodobacter sphaeroides that expresses santalene synthase, producing sesquiterpenes like santalene. These products are then purified through distillation and converted by oxidation to obtain santalol. - Fehr et al. (2009): Synthesis and isolation of Beta-Santalol.
