Sandalwood (Byakudan in Japanese; Santalum album L.) is used as a popular sedative in Oriental medicine. Extracts of the wood of Santalum album were obtained by successively extracting with benzene, chloroform, methanol and water. Each of these fractions was tested for activity on the central
The major sesquiterpene constituents of East-Indian sandalwood oil (Z)-α- and (Z)-β-santalols have shown to be responsible for most of the biological activities and organoleptic properties of sandalwood oil. The work reported here describes the strategic use of medium pressure liquid chromatography
Three osmophoric points have been found to be necessary for the scent of sandalwood odorants. One of these points is the bulky group in a certain distance from the osmophoric hydroxyl group. Such a hydrophobic moiety is part of the trimethylcyclopentenyl derivatives, the so called campholenals,
The synthesis and odour properties of the new santalol analogue, methyl-beta-santalol, are described. The additional methyl group adjacent to the hydroxyl function of the standard molecule, beta-santalol, deprives the new compound of the sandalwood note. The synthesis and the odour evaluation of
In a series of structure-odor relationship investigations the synthesis of a new tricyclic beta-santalol derivative is described. The product of a multistep synthesis appears in an olfactive evaluation more or less odorless, may be slightly creamy but definitely with no sandalwood odor. This
The synthesis and odor properties of cyclopropano-beta-santalol, a new santalol analogue, are described. The exocyclic double bond of the original molecule, beta-santalol, is replaced by a cyclopropane ring. Despite the analogies in the binding properties between the double bond and cyclopropane
Medicinally, sandalwood oil (SO) has been attributed with antiinflammatory properties; however, mechanism(s) for this activity have not been elucidated. To examine how SOs affect inflammation, cytokine antibody arrays and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to assess changes in production
Several new and differently functionalized cis-2,3-dimethylnorbornane derivatives presenting diverse side-chain lengths were prepared, the structures of which are related to the natural fragrance beta-santalol. In particular, exo- and endo-3,8-dihydro-beta-santalols, with either (E) or (Z) C==C-bond
The synthetic challenges associated with the selective synthesis of α-Santalene (1), (Z)-α-Santalol (2), β-Santalene (3), and most importantly (Z)-β-Santalol (4) have interested the world's synthetic chemists for decades. These molecules, lovely examples of nature's exquisite creations, have been
The use of gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry (MS), GC-time-of-flight MS (TOFMS), comprehensive two-dimensional GC (GCxGC)-flame ionization detection (FID), and GCxGC-TOFMS is discussed for the characterization of the eight important representative components, including Z-alpha-santalol,
Thirty-four plant essential oils were screened for their acaricidal and oviposition deterrent activities against two-spotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), in the laboratory using a leaf-dip bioassay. From initial trials, sandalwood and common thyme oils were
East Indian Sandalwood Oil (EISO) has diverse beneficial effects and has been used for thousands of years in traditional folk-medicine for treatment of different human ailments. However, there has been no in-depth scientific investigation to decipher the neuroprotective and geroprotective mechanism
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, with no major advancements in treatment over the past 40 years. The current study explores the biological effects of East Indian sandalwood oil (EISO) and its two major constituents, α- and β-santalol, against a
West Australian sandalwood (Santalum spicatum) has long been exploited for its fragrant, sesquiterpene-rich heartwood; however sandalwood fragrance qualities vary substantially, which is of interest to the sandalwood industry. We investigated metabolite profiles of trees from the arid northern and
The chemical composition of volatile compounds from pericarp oils of Indian sandalwood, Santalum album L., isolated by hydrodistillation and solvent extraction, were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The pericarps yielded 2.6 and 5.0% volatile oil by hydrodistillation and n-hexane extraction, and they were
