Overview of Alpha Copaene

Alpha Copaene is a naturally occurring sesquiterpene hydrocarbon found in essential oils such as Copaiba, Clove, and Patchouli. It is known for its woody, spicy, and warm aroma, which makes it valuable in the flavour and fragrance industry. Its stable structure and compatibility with other terpenes like Alpha-Pinene, Beta-Copaene, and Alpha-Gurjunene make it ideal for blending in perfumes and aromatic formulations. Alpha Copaene is also studied for its biological and therapeutic properties, including antioxidant and insect-attractant benefits, making it useful in both industrial and research applications.

Applications of Alpha Copaene

Flavour & Fragrance Industry

Widely used as a fragrance enhancer in perfumes, soaps, and cosmetics. Adds depth and warmth to woody and spicy fragrance profiles. Blends perfectly with compounds like Alpha-Pinene, Beta-Copaene, and Alpha-Gurjunene. Used in essential oil compositions to improve aroma persistence.

Pharmaceutical & Biological Research

Studied for potential antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Investigated in natural product chemistry for its role in insect behaviour modulation. Serves as a reference compound in aroma compound identification and terpene analysis.

Industrial & Chemical Applications

Used as an intermediate in the production of fragrance molecules. Used in aroma formulations, insect pheromone studies, and natural extracts. Alpha-Cubebene and Alpha-Phellandrene can often be combined in aroma blends for additional fragrance notes.

Safety & Handling Guidelines

• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area.
