Chemistry of volatile oils constituents Types of constituents detected in volatile oils V. O. are complex mixtures formed of: 1. Terpenoids (mainly mono- & sesquiterpenoids) 2. Aliphatic compounds (acyclic, straight chain compounds which may be terpenoids). 3. Phenyl propanoids (C6-C3, aromatic) 4. Miscellaneous compounds e.g. organo-nitrogen & organo-sulfur compounds.  Each group includes non-oxygenated (hydrocarbons) & oxygenated compounds.  Oxygenated constituents are generally responsible for the characteristic odor of the oil. 1 Removal of terpenoid hydrocarbons  Oils rich in terpenoid hydrocarbons deteriorate rapidly on storage due to oxidation & polymerization → bad smelling (with turpentine-like odor) & resinified products.  Removal of most terpenoid hydrocarbons → Fractional distillation “Terpeneless oils" by any of the following methods: 1. Fractional distillation under reduced pressure: hydrocarbons have lower b.p. than oxygenated compounds, they distill first & are rejected. 2. Column chromatography on silica gel: hydrocarbons are eluted with n-hexane then oxygenated compounds with absolute alcohol. 3. Selective extraction of oxygenated components with dilute alcohol followed by distillation. Column chromatography 2 “Terpeneless oils” “Volatile oil isolates”  Oils from which most An isolate is a single chemical terpene hydrocarbons are substance isolated from the oil removed: (may be oxygenated or non- oxygenated) 1. More stable being less liable to deterioration “Oleoptene & Stearoptene” 2. Richer in oxygenated compounds. Stearoptene = solid fraction separating on cooling a v.o. 3. More soluble in low-strength (previously known as alcohols camphors), consists of 1 or more solid oxygenated 4. Used in smaller amounts to compounds give the same strength of odor. Oleoptene = remaining liquid 5. More expensive than natural fraction, mainly formed of oils hydrocarbons 3 Isolation of volatile oil constituents  Physical methods (cooling, fractional distillation, fractional crystallization & preparative gas chromatography)  Chemical methods depend on: 1. Solubility differences in acids or alkalis 2. Derivatization (due to presence of functional groups). 3. Adduct formation (specific for certain compounds). N.B.: The original compound can be regenerated by decomposition of the derivative or adduct. 4 Chemical methods for isolation of V.O. constituents Solubility in alkalis: 1. Compounds containing -COOH group (strongly acidic) + mild alkali (Na2CO3) → water soluble Na salts (decomposed by acids). 2. Phenolic compounds (mild acids) + aqueous NaOH or KOH (strong alkalis) → water soluble Na or K phenates (decomposed by acids) → phenol. Cassia flask Derivatization: 1. Alcohols → esterification → phenyl urethans or acid phthalates 2. Carbonyl compounds → derivatives e.g. crystalline bisulfites, semicarbazones, phenyl hydrazones & oximes. 5 Chemical methods for isolation of V.O. constituents (cont.) Formation of crystalline additive products (Adduct formation): 1. Geraniol, benzyl & cinnamyl alcohols + anhydrous CaCl2. 2. Carvone + H2S gas in presence of NH3. 3. Cineole + strong acids (e.g. H3PO4) & resorcinol 4. Unsaturated terpene hydrocarbons + HCl, HBr & NOCl (nitrosyl chloride or Tilden’s reagent). 5. Azulenes +  Strong mineral acids e.g. H3PO4 and H2SO4  Ferrocyannic acid  Nitrocompounds e.g. picric, styphnic & tortylic acids. 6 Biosynthesis IPP is formed from acetyl-CoA via the mevalonate pathway (the "upstream" part), and then is isomerized to dimethylallyl pyrophosphate by the enzyme isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase. Terpenoids (Terpenes)  They constitute the largest known group of secondary metabolites.  They yield isoprene as final product of destructive distillation (= pyrolysis).  The term “terpenes” should better be used to indicate the unsaturated hydrocarbons  Isoprene(C5H8), a 5 carbon-atom unit, is considered as the building unit of all terpenoids h h 1 CH 2 t t 4 Abbreviated structure H2C 3 C 2 h=head, t=tail C CH3 Isoprene, 2-methyl 1:3 butadiene, 1,3 isopentene 7 Isoprene rule for formation of terpenoids  Theoretical biogenetic rule which states that: “Each group of terpenes originates from the head-to-tail condensation of a variable number of isoprene units”.

Wt.)  Acyclic (i.e. aliphatic) or alicyclic (i.e. with non-aromatic ring structures)  Hydrocarbons or oxygenated (alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, oxides or peroxides)  Often optically active occurring as d-, l- & dl isomers  Monoterpenoids (10 C) 1. Most abundant class of the essential oil constituents. 2. Consist of 2 molecules of isoprene (C 5H8) 3. Hydrocarbons have the empirical formula C10H16 4. Acyclic or alicyclic (mainly mono- & bicyclic) 10 Nomenclature of terpenoids  Chemical names are derived from the corresponding saturated hydrocarbon skeleton 6 5 7 1.

Limonene Sylvestrene 14 Isomerism of Monoterpenoids  Geometrical isomerism: e.g. the cis-trans isomeric alcohols, nerol & geraniol. CH2OH H H CH2OH Geraniol (trans) Nerol (cis)  Optical isomerism: due to the presence of one or more asymmetric C atoms e.g. dipentene occurs in d-, l - & dl - forms due to asymmetry at C4 (not involved in a double bond), while terpinene is optically inactive.  Strainless ring isomerism: more stable chair & boat configurations than planar.  Isomerism due to molecular rearrangement of the ring structures: e.g. from pinane to camphane etc…. Pinane Camphane 15 Phenyl propanoids (C6-C3) or Aromatic constituents  Less common than the terpenoids.  Contain a C6 phenyl ring to which is attached a C3 propane side chain  Many are phenols (e.g. eugenol), or phenol ethers (e.g., anethole, safrole, apiole), & aldehydes e.g., cinnamaldehyde.  The propane side chain may be formed of 2 or 1 C (C6-C1) e.g. vanillin, methyl salicylate & methyl anthranilate.  Certain aromatic C10 compounds e.g. p-cymene, thymol & carvacrol can be described under monoterpenoids. 16 Examples of phenyl propanoids in volatile oils OH OH p-Cymene Thymol Carvacrol OCH3 OH O O OCH3 O H3CO O OCH3 Anethole Eugenol Saffrole Apiole OH OCH3 O CHO OCH3 CH2OH CHO OH 17 Vanillin Cinnamaldehyde Methyl salycilate Phenyl ethyl alcohol Hydrocarbons in Volatile oils 18 Different Types of Hydrocarbons Acyclic or aliphatic ACYCLIC TERPENOID HYDROCARBONS 1.
