LAUREL LEAF OIL Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Bay oil/Bay rum oil is obtained by steam distillation of the leaves of Pimenta
racemosa (Mill.) J.W. Moore (Myrtaceae). It is a dark brown liquid with a strong,
spicy, clove-like odor.
d202020D 1.505–1.517; phenols content: min. 52%.
Evergreen bay trees or bay-rum trees, which are up to 12m high, grow wild
and are also cultivated in northern South America and in the West Indies. The
main cultivation area is the island of Dominica where with ～20 t/yr, 85% of the
worldwide demand are produced.
Themajor components of the oil aremyrcene (20–30%), eugenol (42–56%), and
chavicol (8–13%).The phenol content is determined largely by the last
two compounds.
Bay oil has antiseptic properties because of its high phenol content and is, therefore,
a classical ingredient for perfuming after-shave lotions.

It occurs as a yellow to brownish-yellow liquid and is soluble in alcohol and glacial acetic acid. Solutions in alcohol are acid to litmus.
