CARVONE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

Carvone occurs as (S)-(+)- carvone ([α]18 D +64.3°,), (R)-(?)-carvone ([α]20 D ?62.5°), or racemic carvone. The optical isomers differ considerably in their sensory properties. They occur in high percentages in a number of essential oils. (+)-Carvone is the main component of caraway oil (about 60%) and dill oil; (?)- carvone occurs in spearmint oil at a concentration of 70–80%.
Both (+)- and (?)-carvone are used to flavor a number of foods and beverages. (?)-Carvone is produced in much larger quantities and is mainly used in oral hygiene products.

Chemical Properties

Caravone occurs in different forms. l-Carvone exhibits odor of spearmint, while d-carvone exhibits odor reminiscent of caraway.

Chemical Properties

Pale-yellowish or colorless liquid with a strong characteristic odor. Soluble in alcohol, ether, chloroform, propylene glycol, and mineral oils; insoluble in glycerol and water. Combustible.

Physical properties

The carvones are colorless to slightly yellow liquids.(+)-Carvone has a herbaceous odor reminiscent of caraway and dill seeds, whereas (?)-carvone has a herbaceous odor reminiscent of spearmint. Depending on the reaction conditions, hydrogenation of carvone yields either carveol or dihydrocarvone, which are also used as flavor compounds. When treated with strong acids, carvone isomerizes to carvacrol.

Occurrence

The optically active and inactive forms have been reported among the constituents of about 70 essential oils. The dextro form is present in carvi, Antheum graveolens, Antheum sowa, Lippia carviodora, Mentha arvensis, etc. The levo form is present in Metha vifidis var. crispa, Mentha longifolia from South Africa, Eucalyptus globules and several mint species. The racemic form is present in ginger grass, Litsea gutalemaleusis, lavender and Artemisia ferganensis. Reported found in citrus oil and juice (lemon, lime, orange), celery seed, anise, clove, coriander seed, calamus, caraway herb and dill seed.

Uses

Carvone is useful for the treatment of various metabolic disorders and GI related disorders.

Uses

Flavoring, liqueurs, perfumery, soaps.

Definition

A ketone derived from the terpene dipentene. It is optically active, occurring naturally in both d- and l-forms.

Preparation

In the past, (+)- and (?)-carvones were isolated by fractional distillation of caraway oil and spearmint oil, respectively. However, these carvones are now prepared synthetically, the preferred starting materials being (+)- and (?)- limonenes, which are converted into the corresponding optically active carvones. Since optical rotation is reversed in the process, (+)-limonene is the startingmaterial for (?)-carvone.
Thepreferred industrialmethod of carvone synthesis utilizes the selective addition of nitrosyl chloride to the endocyclic double bond of limonene. If a lower aliphatic alcohol is used as solvent, limonene nitrosochloride is obtained in high yield. It is converted into carvone oxime by elimination of hydrogen chloride in the presence of a weak base. Acid hydrolysis in the presence of a hydroxylamine acceptor, such as acetone, yields carvone.
An alternative process for the production of (?)-carvone has recently been commercialized. Starting from (+)-limonene 1,2-epoxide, a regioselective rearrangement of the epoxide leads to (?)-carveol (trans- :[2102-58-1]; cis- :[2102-59-2]). Thereaction is effected by the use of a catalyst consisting of a combination of metal salts and phenolic compounds.
(?)-Carveol is subsequently oxidized to (?)-carvone by anOppenauer oxidation or by dehydrogenation in the presence of special catalysts.The reaction may also be performed as a one-pot reaction.

Aroma threshold values

Detection: d-Carvone: 6.7 to 820 ppb; l-carvone: 2.7 to 600 ppb

Synthesis

Carvone occurs in the dextro, levo and racemic form; l-carvone can be isolated from the essential oil of spearmint or is commercially synthesized from d-limonene; d-carvone is usually prepared by fractional distillation of oil of caraway, also from dillseed and dillweed oils, but this type differs in odor and flavors.
