Determination of the enantiomeric composition of terpinen‐4‐ol in essential oils using a permethylated β‐cyclodextrin coated chiral capillary column

Abstract
The enantiomeric composition and relative quantity of terpinen‐4‐ol was determined in laboratory made essential oils and in essential oils and samples of terpinen‐4‐ol from commercial sources using a permethylated‐β‐cyclodextrin‐coated chiral capillary column. Chromatographic enantiomeric resolution of terpinen‐4‐ol was achieved by injection of a purified fraction collected by preparative gas chromatography. (S)‐(+)‐Terpinen‐4‐ol with high enantiomeric purity was detected in three lavender oils of different origin.
