8015-90-5 Usage
Chemical Properties
Different sources of media describe the Chemical Properties of 8015-90-5 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. From steam distillation of fruit and seed of Apium graveolens L. Yellow to green-brown liquid; aromatic odor. Sol in fixed oils, mineral oil; slightly sol in propylene glycol; insol in glycerin.
2. Celery seed oil is obtained by steam distillation of the crushed, ripe seeds of
field-grown celery, Apium graveolens L. (Apiaceae). It is produced in India in a
quantity of ~20 t/yr and is an almost colorless to brownish-yellow liquid with a
characteristic, pervasive, sweet–spicy, long-lasting odor.
d2020 0.867–0.908; n20D 1.4780–1.4880; α20D +48 ° to +78°; solubility: 1 vol in no more than 6 vol of 90% ethanol at 20 °C; saponification number: 20–70.
Major mono- and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons in the oil are (+)-limonene
(58–79%) and β-selinene [17066-67-01] (5–20%). Its typical, long-lasting odor is
caused primarily by two lactones, 3-butylphthalide and sedanenolide (1.5–11%).
Celery seed oil is used chiefly for flavoring foods, although small quantities are
also used in perfumery.
3. The volatile oil is obtained by steam distillation of crushed seeds in approximately 1.5 to 2.5% yields. The seed oil has
a pleasant, spicy-warm, sweet and rich “soup-like,” long-lasting and powerful, slightly fatty odor, typical of the odor of the seed, but
less “fresh” than the odor of the celery plant. The flavor is equally warm and spicy, somewhat burning and very powerful. Celery
seed oil has one of the most diffusive odors and one of the most penetrating flavors. The essential oil is sometimes steam-distilled
from leaves and stems; however, this oil is of inferior quality. Its addition to celery seed oil lowers the specific gravity and increases
the optical rotation of the latter.
4. This annual or biennial herb, approximately 30 to 60 cm high, is native to Europe, yet grown and consumed worldwide.
The plant has a grooved, fleshy, erect stalk, taproot, both radial and stalk leaves, hermaphroditic flowers and humped seeds. It is
cultivated for extractive purposes mainly in France, Holland, Hungary, India and California. The parts used are seeds and sometimes
roots and leaves. Celery has a rich, long-lasting, spicy odor with a warm, burning taste.
Physical properties
The oil is a pale-yellow to yellow-brownish liquid. It is soluble in most fixed oils with the
formation of a flocculent precipitate, and in mineral oil with turbidity. It is partly soluble in propylene glycol and insoluble in
glycerin.
Occurrence
Found in the seed of Apium graveolens L
Uses
Food additive.
Preparation
By steam distillation of the crushed seeds of Apium graveolens L
Essential oil composition
The chief constituent of celery seed oil is d-limonene
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 8015-90-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 8,0,1 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 8015-90:
(6*8)+(5*0)+(4*1)+(3*5)+(2*9)+(1*0)=85
85 % 10 = 5
So 8015-90-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
