Researches on Camphor, Borneol and Their Allied Substances

Chlorpromazine and allied substances.

Promethazine (phenergan) has two methyl groups, which in these derivatives are associated with strong antihistaminic power, while chlorpromazine is a propylamine phenothiazine, which has more marked central nervous system effects but only one-hundredth of the antihistamine potency of promezathine. The Department of Pharmacology at Oxford has pointed out (Burns, 1948; Burns and Dutta, 1948; Dews...

Natural Borneol Recycling from Cinnamomum camphor chvar. Borneol Oil Residue by Fractional Distillation and Recrystallization

Purpose: To establish an efficient method to recycle natural borneol from Cinnamomum camphor chvar. Borneol oil residue. Methods: The fractions and raffinate of the oil residue of Cinnamomum camphor chvar. Borneol were obtained by fractional distillation, and analyzed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatographymass spectrometry (GC-MS). Natural borneol w...

Synthesis of Camphor by the Oxidation of Borneol

The effect of camphor and borneol on rat thymocyte viability and oxidative stress.

Camphor and borneol are wildly distributed in the essential oils of medicinal plants from various parts of the World. Our study has been carried out to evaluate the effect of these two bicyclic monoterpenes on rat thymocytes. Camphor and borneol at concentrations of 0.5 and 5 µg/mL did not induce significant toxicity on the immune system cells, while a significant increase of thymocyte viabilit...
