Eugenol with CAS 97-53-0
Eugenol is naturally present in essential oils such as clove oil, clove basil oil and cinnamon oil. It is a colorless to pale yellow viscous oily liquid with a strong clove aroma and a pungent fragrance. At present, in industrial production, eugenol is mostly obtained by treating essential oils rich in eugenol with alkali and then separating them. In Chemicalbook, sodium hydroxide solution is usually added to the oil to be separated. After heating and stirring, the non-phenolic oily substances floating on the liquid surface are extracted with a solvent or distilled out with steam. Then, sodium salt is acidified with acid to obtain crude eugenol. After washing with water until neutral, pure eugenol can be obtained through vacuum distillation.
