 Borneol (CAS NO.507-70-0) is used in traditional Chinese medicine as moxa. An early description can be found in the Bencao Gangmu.Isoborneol is its exo isomer.Derivatives of isoborneol are used as chiral ligands in asymmetric synthesis.

 Borneol (CAS NO.507-70-0) is easily oxidized to the ketone yielding camphor. Borneol can be synthesized by reduction of camphor by the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley Reduction. The same reduction but then fast and irreversible with Sodium borohydride gives isoborneol as the kinetically controlled reaction product.

 Borneol (CAS NO.507-70-0) also can be called for Baros camphor ; 2-Borneol ; Bicyclo(2.2.1)heptan-2-ol, 1,7,7-trimethyl-, (1R,2S,4R)-rel- ; 1R-endo)-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ol .It is a bicyclic organic compound and a terpene. The hydroxyl group in this compound is placed in an endo position.Borneol exists as two enantiomers, found in several species of Artemisia and Dipterocarpaceae, which have two different CAS numbers.And it is hazardous,so the first aid measures and others should be known.Such as: When on the skin: first,should  flush skin with plenty of water immediatelyfor at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly,Get shoesmedical aid . Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids.Then get medical aid soon.While ,it's Inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately.Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen.And as soon as to get medical aid.Then you have the ingesting of the product : Wash mouth out with water,and get medical aid immediately.Notes to physician: Treat supportively and symptomatically. In addition, Borneol (CAS NO.507-70-0) can be stable under normal temperature and pressure conditions.It is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, ignition sources, and you must not take it with incompatible materials.And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: carbon dioxide,carbon monoxide.
