(+)-LONGIFOLENE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

(+)-Longifolene is a kind of natural spice extracted from heavy turpentine. It has special chemical activity and is the raw material of synthetic resin, synthetic spice, flotation agent and organic synthesis. Also Longifolene can be used in the formulation of flavors to replace some expensive flavors.

Uses

(+)-Longifolene is a tricyclic sesquiterpene, and the content in masson pine heavy turpentine is about 60%～78%. It has special chemical activity and can be used a raw material for synthetic resins, synthetic fragrances, flotation agents and organic synthesis.

Definition

ChEBI: (+)-longifolene is a longifolene. It is an enantiomer of a (-)-longifolene.

Production Methods

Longifolene is obtained by distillation, e.g., Indian turpentine.
