The biosynthesis of terpene compounds

From Wallach's isoprene rule to Ruzieka's biogenetic isoprene rule, the monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes have played a significant role in the development of basic concepts concerning the origin of all terpenoid compounds. Yet, while our understanding of the biosynthesis of higher terpenoids, such as steroids, has flourished progress in the biochemistry of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes has been relatively slow--due in large part to the chemical nature of the mono- and sesquiterpenes (volatility, instability, and so forth) and to the experimental difficulties associated with the plants that produce these compounds.

Mood Benefits Fragrance

The profiles presented here illustrate that fragrances can have measurable and distinctive effects on our mood in ways that could prove beneficial for the user. We believe that further improvements in our measurement techniques, and a better understanding of the mood changes evoked by specific perfumery ingredients will allow for the development of more impactful mood-aftering fragrances.

Mood Benefits of Fragrance

IFF developed an interest in aromatherapy in the early 1980s as a potential means for imparting a stress-reducing benefit to fragrance. Aromatherapy is an age-old practice of applying the healing benefits of certain aromatic essential oils. In the traditions of aromatherapy, specific essential oils are stress reducing, whereas others are energizing, and still others can have either effect, depending on the user's state of mind/body interaction. We reasoned that the best way to study the stress-reducing properities of fragrance would be to investigate their physiological effects.

Perfumers need to be more comfortable being uncomfortable, explore new ingredient ideas and learn to win with the palette of the future.

3 Change Agents Shaping Fragrance Formulation

How perfumers can best navigate three areas currently having the biggest impact on the fragrance industry.

Fragrances Through Hydrochlorination of Terpenes

Among the reactions that have enriched terpene chemlstry, perhaps the simplest and one of the outstanding is hydrochlorination. This reaction has been used for structural elucidation, for derivatization to identify and/or purify terpenes and for synthesizing perfumery chemicals. How the application of hydrochlorination on terpenes has unearthed the treasure caves of fragrances is a vibrant chapter worthy of portrayal.

Base-catalysed of terpenes

We have projected in the foregoing survey significant advances in the isomerisation of terpenes by base catalysis. Invoking this technique, it si seen how many of the delicate reactions are smoothly accomplished, adding new dimensions to terpene technology. How terpenes, which are notoriously sensitive to thermal and proton impact, have been engineered in the desired direction through base catalysis is an important chapter in the history of terpene chemistry.
