1,8-Cineole, also known as eucalyptol, is a bicyclic monoterpenoid ether and the principal aromatic constituent of eucalyptus essential oil. Its bridged ether structure gives it good chemical stability, and it is frequently used as an analytical reference standard for the identification and quantification of eucalyptol in essential oils by GC and GC-MS. Beyond analysis, it serves as a starting material for terpenoid derivatisation and as a model compound in phytochemical and bioactivity studies. TCI supplies this flammable liquid in 25 mL, 100 mL, and 500 mL packs; keep containers tightly closed, protected from light, and away from ignition sources.
