volatile oil (2)
1. • Characters:
- The oxygenated terpenes are the
principle odour carriers of the volatile oil.
- Have better solubility in dilute alcohol
than hydrocarbons.
- Have great stability against oxidizing
agents and resenifying influence.
2. • Oil rich in terpene hydrocarbons
rapid deterioration through oxidation and
resinification
develop a turpentine-like odour during storage.
3. • Removal of terpene hydrocarbons from the
oil, the oil left is called Terpeneless
volatile oil.
- More soluble in alcohol.
- More stable.
- Have much stronger odour.
4. • Methods of Preparation of Terpeneless
oil:
• 1- Fractional distillation under reduced
pressure
- hydrocarbons having boiling points lower than
oxygenated compounds and so distill first.
• 2- Column chromatography on silica gel.
- by eluting hydrocarbons with n-hexane and
oxygenated compounds with absolute alcohol.
5. • Terpeneless oils are higher in price than
natural oils.
• Advantages:
1- richer in oxygenated compounds.
2- have higher solubility in alcohol.
3- have much stronger odour.
4- do not deteriorate easily (more stable).
9. Methods used in Preparation of
Derivatives of Terpene Alcohols
• The most common derivatives are:
1- Dehydration Products.
2- Calcium chloride (CaCl2)addition products.
3- Esters:
examples of esters as:
a- Borates
b- Phthalates.
c- Benzoates.
d- Urethanes.
10. a- Borates
- Primary and secondary alcohols can readily
form borates.
- Tertiary alcohols do not react.
- Primary alcohols react more readily than
secondary alcohol
- So this method can be used for their
separation.
- Used for separation of primary, secondary and
tertiary alcohols in a mixture.
11. b- Phthalates
• Alcohol + phthalic anhydride monoester
derivative.
- This method is used for the separation of the
three alcohols.
12. - Primary Alcohols (in dil.benzene solutions)
Steam bath (100 °C)
Acid phthalates
(which are separated as Na salt of phthalate
acid ester from the secondary and tertiary
alcohols)
- Secondary Alcohols react less
readily need to be heated up to (120-130°C).
- Tertiary alcohols don’t react under these
conditions.

• Isolation:
1- By fractional distillation
(fraction with boiling points 225-226°C).
17. 2- Preparation with phthalate derivative:
- heating with phthalic anhydride at 200°C and
formation of the (acid phthalate).

18. • Identification:
1- By preparation of the liquid acid phthalate
which yield crystalline silver salt “m.p. 125-

2- Upon oxidation with chromic acid it gives
citronellal (aldehyde form).
20. • Occurrence:
• Geraniol present in many oils as:
- Palmerosa,
- Geranium oil,
- Citronella oil and
- Rose oil.
• Nerol is present in oils of:
- petit grain (bitter orange),
- orange flower and
- bergamot.
21. • Properties:
- Both have rose-like odour.
- Lighter than water.
- The presence of two olefinic double bonds,
geraniol is highly reactive.
- Geraniol and Nerol are sensitive to mineral
acids and dehydrating agents.

23. • Separation of Geraniol from Nerol
1- Only Geraniol forms crystalline additive with
CaCl2 insoluble in ether and benzene and
regenerated by warming with water.
• Geraniol Geraniol - CaCl2
2- Only Geraniol forms a crystalline acid
phthalate ester while Nerol doesn’t.

24. • Identification:
• Geraniol can be identified by determination of
the melting point of its derivatives.
1- diphenyl urethane (m.p. 82-83°C).
2- α-naphthol urethane (m.p. 47-48°C).
3- 3-nitrophthalate (m.p. 109°C).
• Nerol can be identified by its derivatives:
1- tetrabromide (m.p. 116-118°C).
2- diphenyl urethane (m.p. 52-53°C).
25. • Uses:
• It is used in manufacturing of perfumes, soap
and flavor industry.
26. • Occurrence:
• It is an unsaturated tertiary
alcohol.
• It occurs either free in d-
and l- isomers or in the
form of esters (usually
acetate).

28. • Isolation:
• By careful distillation of the saponified volatile
oil, since it doesn’t form any definite
crystalline derivatives.
29. • Action of Acids:
• 1- Because it is a tertiary alcohol, linalool
isomerizes to Geraniol by actions of acids.
• 2- It is easily oxidized by chromic acid or
formic acid (cold) to Citral
