  • Applications

    Caryophyllenol II (CAS 32214-89-4) is a caryophyllane-type sesquiterpenol occurring at trace levels in certain spice and medicinal essential oils; in practice, it is used mainly as a research reference standard for GC–MS/LC–MS, a chemotaxonomic and quality-control marker for botanicals/essential oils, and as an intermediate/building block for semi-synthesis of caryophyllane derivatives (e.g., related alcohols, epoxides, and oxides); in fragrance–flavor technology, it is investigated to impart or modulate woody, warm-spicy, and balsamic nuances and to fine-tune terpene backbones in perfume or food-flavor formulations; in pharmacology and chemical biology, Caryophyllenol II serves as a model compound to study metabolism, stability, and oxidative/stereochemical rearrangements of the caryophyllane scaffold, and as a scaffold in in vitro screening for potential activities (such as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, or insect-modulating) to guide drug discovery and crop-protection leads; additionally, it supports analytical method development (calibration, spike-in, spectral-library matching), assessment of purity/isomer ratio effects on aroma and bioactivity, and studies on encapsulation or delivery to enhance formulation stability; practical use should comply with local regulations for fragrance, food-additive, and chemical handling, as this compound is not an approved drug and is typically intended for research purposes.
