Caryophyllene /ˌkærioʊfɪˈliːn/, or (−)-β-caryophyllene, is a natural bicyclic sesquiterpene that is a constituent of many essential oils, especially clove oil, the oil from the stems and flowers of Syzygium aromaticum (cloves),[3] the essential oil of Cannabis sativa, rosemary,[4] and hops.[5] It is usually found as a mixture with isocaryophyllene (the cis double bond isomer) and α-humulene (obsolete name: α-caryophyllene), a ring-opened isomer. Caryophyllene is notable for having a cyclobutane ring, as well as a trans-double bond in a 9-membered ring, both rarities in nature.
The first total synthesis of caryophyllene in 1964 by E.J. Corey was considered one of the classic demonstrations of the possibilities of synthetic organic chemistry at the time.[6]
Caryophyllene is one of the chemical compounds that contributes to the spiciness of black pepper.[7]
Metabolism and derivatives
14-Hydroxycaryophyllene oxide (C15H24O2) was isolated from the urine of rabbits treated with (-)-caryophyllene (C15H24). The x-ray crystal structure of 14-hydroxycaryophyllene (as its acetate derivative) has been reported.
The metabolism of caryophyllen progresses through (-)-caryophyllene oxide (C15H24O) since the latter compound also afforded 14-hydroxycaryophyllene (C15H24O) as a metabolite.[8]
- Caryophyllene (C15H24) → caryophyllene oxide (C15H24O) → 14-hydroxycaryophyllene (C15H24O) → 14-hydroxycaryophyllene oxide (C15H24O2).
Caryophyllene oxide,[9] in which the olefin of caryophyllene has become an epoxide, is the component responsible for cannabis identification by drug-sniffing dogs[10][11] and is also an approved food flavoring.
Natural sources
The approximate quantity of caryophyllene in the essential oil of each source is given in square brackets ([ ]):
- Cannabis, hemp, marijuana (Cannabis sativa) [3.8–37.5% of cannabis flower essential oil][12]
- Black caraway (Carum nigrum) [7.8%][13]
- Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum)[3] [1.7–19,5% of clove bud essential oil][14]
- Hops (Humulus lupulus)[15] [5.1–14.5%][16]
- Basil (Ocimum spp.)[17] [5.3–10.5% O. gratissimum; 4.0–19.8% O. micranthum][18]
- Oregano (Origanum vulgare)[19] [4.9–15.7%][20][21]
- Black pepper (Piper nigrum) [7.29%][7]
- Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) [4.62–7.55% of lavender oil][22][23]
- Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)[4] [0.1–8.3%][24]
- True cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) [6.9–11.1%][25]
- Malabathrum (Cinnamomum tamala) [25.3%][26]
- Ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata) [3.1–10.7%]
- Copaiba oil (Copaifera spp.)[27][28]
