- Eugenol (C10H12O2), is
an allyl chain-substituted guaiacol.
- Eugenol is a member of
the phenylpropanoids class of chemical compounds.
- It is a clear to pale
yellow oily liquid extracted from certain essential oils especially from
clove oil, nutmeg, cinnamon, and bay leaf.
- It is slightly soluble
in water and soluble in organic solvents. It has a pleasant, spicy,
clove-like aroma.
- Eugenol is sometimes
called clove oil because it is the active element in cloves.
- Besides cloves, it can
also be extracted from cinnamon and other aromatic spices.
- Its specific gravity is
slightly more than 1.06 at room temperature, making it heavier than
water.
- Its boiling point is
about 252° C.It has about a 2 year shelf life before its potency begins
to seriously degrade.
- It is recommended that
it be stored in a cool, dry, and dark place.
- Essential oils are
volatile, ethereal liquids of oily consistency. They are extracted from
plants, usually by steam distilaltion or extraction.
- Eugenol is the main
ingredient of the essential oil that can be isolated from the spice
clove.
- Eugenol contains a
carbon-carbon double bond and an aromatic hydroxyl group called a
phenol. These functional groups provide the basis for simple chemical
tests used to characterize the clove oil.
- Eugenol is used in
perfumeries, flavorings, essential oils and in medicine as a local
antiseptic and anesthetic.
- It is a key ingredient
in Indonesian kretek (clove) cigarettes.
- Eugenol derivatives or
methoxyphenol derivatives in wider classification are used in perfumery
and flavoring.
- They are used in
formulating insect attractants and UV absorbers, analgesics, biocides
and antiseptics. They are also used in manufacturing stabilizers and
antioxidants for plastics and rubbers.
- Eugenol is a phenol
derivative that is used in combination with zinc oxide as a surgical
dressing,pulp capping agent, cavity liner, temporary cement, and in
mouthwashes and endodontic therapy.
- Eugenol is found as a
major ingredient in a variety of dental materials such as impression
materials, filling materials, dental cements, endodontic sealers,
periodontal dressing materials and dry socket dressings.
- Eugenol was the
compound responsible for antifungal activity of the essential oil of O.
gratissimum.
- The capacity of a zinc
oxide-and eugenol-based root canal sealer in penetrating into lateral
canals depends on two factors: the physical properties of the material
and the correct manipulation of the sealer, respecting the powder-liquid
ratio and observing the ideal clinical consistency for obturation, which
is more important and, also, more controllable by the dentist.
- Many benzene
derivatives possess aromatic, spicy and specific odors. These aromatic
compounds include mono- and polysubstituted
benzene derivatives, such
as benzaldehyde, anethole and anisaldehyde, eugenol and vanillin,
safrole and heliotropin.
- Eugenol is widely used
in dentistry. It is generally used without incident however in a
sensitised individual it can cause a range of tissue effects, from
low-grade local reactions to the rare, but serious, anaphylactic
reaction.
- Eugenol is not a
bio-friendly material and patients should be discouraged from using it
in its pure form, either to alleviate toothache or dentine
hypersensitivity.
- Eugenol
containing materials need to be used in the appropriate amounts and
manufacturer's instructions should be followed. For patients who are
allergic to eugenol, eugenol-free alternatives are
available.
