Sclareolide Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Sclareolide has a musky, wood odor.

Occurrence

Reported present in clary sage bush (Salvia sclarea)

Uses

Sclareolide is found in Salvia yosgadensis and is a close analog of sclareol, an antifungal diterpene.

Uses

antimicrobial

Uses

sclareolide is a fragrancing ingredient, it can help mask formulation odors. It is synthetically manufactured.

Preparation

Sclareol, isolated from clary sage by solvent extraction, can be efficiently oxidized by the microorganism Cryptococcus albidus to sclareolide.

Definition

ChEBI: Norambreinolide is a naphthofuran.

General Description

Sclareolide is a diterpenoid compound mainly used in the perfume industry for its amber like odor.
