Usage

General Description

Eucamalol, also known as 2-Isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanol, is a bicyclic monoterpene alcohol with a floral, herbal odor. It is commonly found in Eucalyptus globulus essential oil and has been used in perfumery and flavoring. Eucamalol is known for its antimicrobial properties and has been studied for its potential use as an antifungal and antibacterial agent. It also has potential applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to its pleasant aroma and therapeutic properties. Eucamalol is considered relatively safe for use in these applications, but further research is needed to fully understand its potential benefits and limitations.

Novel Rearrangement of 2α-Isopropyl-8-oxabicyclooct-6-ene Producing the Monoterpene 3-Hydroxyphellandral

We describe a five-step synthesis of 2α-isopropyl-8-oxabicyclooct-6-ene from 1,1,3,3-tetrabromo-4-methylpentan-2-one, and its unexpected rearrangement to yield trans-3-hydroxy-4-isopropylcyclohex-1-enecarbaldehyde (3-hydroxyphellandral).
