Authenticate Essential Oils Without Enantiopure Reference Standards

This application note demonstrates how molecular rotational resonance (MRR) spectroscopy enables rapid determination of enantiomeric composition in essential oils without enantiopure reference standards. Using copaiba, cypress, and nutmeg oils as examples, MRR combines chiral tagging and rotational spectroscopy to characterize absolute configuration and enantiomeric excess for product authentication, quality control, and batch consistency testing.

Application Note Highlights

• Learn how chiral tagging enables determination of absolute configuration and enantiomeric excess without reference standards.

• Explore how MRR differentiates chiral components in complex essential oil matrices.

• See how MRR characterizes the enantiomeric composition of copaiba, cypress, and nutmeg oils.

• Understand how chiral analysis supports essential oil authentication, quality control, and batch consistency.
