santene Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Physical properties
Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and
oils.
Ethereal-gassy, sweet-camphoraceous odor,
in high concentration rather unpleasant, but
upon dilution sweeter, less gassy, more
Camphene-like, balsamic. Poor tenacity.
Santene tends to polymerize, become
viscous and odorless.
Definition
ChEBI: 2,3-Dimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene is a hydrocarbon.
Production Methods
Santene can be produced 1) by isolation from Sandalwood oil or from various Pine needle oils. 2) synthetic - from Nor-bomeol. 3) By dehydration of Camphenilol. This synthesis starts from Camphene via omegaNitrocamphene to Camphenilone, and by hydrogenation to Camphenilol.
