Hydrocarbons in Patchouli Oil

Abstract
An analytical study of patchouli oil was carried out, and the following compounds were identified; α- and β-pinene, limonene, camphene, β-elemene, caryophyllene, α- and β-patchoulene, α-guaiene, α-bulnesene, allo-aromadendrene, and α-gurjunene. The last six hydrocarbons were hydrogenated in order to complete the identification and to ascertain their spatial configurations by correlating the saturated skeletons with each of these or with known ones.
