• Description: (+)-Valencene is a sesquiterpene that has been found in C. sativa and is an aromatic component of orange essence oil. (+)-Valencene (50 μM) induces heme oxgenase-1 (HO-1) expression in macrophages and inhibits the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), the production of nitric oxide (NO), and the release of high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) in RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with LPS. It also increases the survival rate in a mouse model of sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture. (+)-Valencene has been used in the synthesis of nootkatone .
• Uses: Valencene is a sesquiterpene and an essential oil component found in a variety of plants, and has been shown to have functional antioxidant, antiradical and antimicrobial properties. (+)-Valencene can be used as a precursor to prepare: (+)-Nootkatone (a sesquiterpene) by dark singlet oxygenation. Benzoyloxyvalencene by reacting with tert-butyl peroxy benzoate via Kharasch?Sosnovsky allylic oxidation method. (+)-Lineariifolianone, a natural product.
