Murphy, Brett J.; Carlson, Richard E.; Howa, John D.; Wilson, Tyler M.; Buch, R. Michael published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Determining the authenticity of methyl salicylate in Gaultheria procumbens L. and Betula lenta L. essential oils using isotope ratio mass spectrometry》, and you may find the article in Journal of Essential Oil Research.Related Products of 119-36-8 The information in the text is summarized as follows:
The essential oils of wintergreen and birch are composed primarily of Me salicylate. Because this compound can easily be synthesized, wintergreen and birch oils are frequently adulterated. By using Gas chromatog.-combustion/pyrolysis-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-C/P-IRMS) in conjunction with TC/EA-IRMS, GC-FID, GC-MS, and 14C radiocarbon dating, criteria will be established that can be used to distinguish authentic and natural wintergreen and birch essential oils from adulterated ones or from synthetic Me salicylate. Com. purchased samples were compared to both synthetic ′oil of wintergreen′ (Me salicylate) and to natural birch and wintergreen essential oils obtained from trusted sources or from the steam distillation of fresh plant material. δ2HVSMOW, δ13CVPDB, and δ18OVSMOW IRMS results provide a clear distinction between authentic and adulterated essential oil samples. The experimental process involved the reaction of Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8Related Products of 119-36-8)
Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8) has been used: as a component of clarifying solution for treating Mongolian gerbil cochlea intact for immunofluorescence analysis, as a plant elicitor to test its effect on reducing the whitefly population from tomato plants.Related Products of 119-36-8
