Use
Fenchone occurs as (1R,4S)-(?)-fenchone,, in fennel oils. It is a colorless, slightly
viscous liquid with a camphoraceous odor.
(1S,4R)-(+)-Fenchone is prepared by dehydrogenation of (?)-fenchol. (?)-Fenchyl esters are obtained, alongwith other compounds, by addition
of carboxylic acids to α-pinene. Hydrolysis of the esters yields (?)-fenchol.
Fenchone is used to prepare artificial fennel oils and to perfume household
products.
