cis- abienol is a chemical compound and belongs to the group of labdanes , wherein the labdane -Grundgerüst by double bonds at the positions C-12 and C-14 and by a hydroxy group is modified at the position C-eighth There is consequently a diterpene - alcohol ( terpenoid ). The isomer trans -Abienol, which has an ( E ) - stereochemistry at C-12, is of little importance.

Occurrence and extraction

Balsam fir ( Abies balsamea )

Abienol is a natural substance and occurs in a wide variety of plants, among other things as the main component of the aromatic substance oleoresin in the balsam fir ( Abies balsamea ), in the Banks pine ( Pinus banksiana ), in the black spruce ( Picea mariana ) or in Virginian Tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum) , from which it can also be obtained by extraction . It occurs mainly on the leaf surface.

use

Abienol serves as an inhibitor of tobacco Verwelkungskrankheit ( English Wilt Disease ). Furthermore, it is a starting compound for the production of fragrances and flavors . For this reason, Abienol is often used as a starting product in the perfume industry. In the laboratory it is mainly used in the synthesis of diols . The smell is described as wooden, amber, and balsamic.
