||
Azulene is a main component of chamomile extract which is used as a colouring agent (azul means blue in Spanish) in cosmetics and ointments and used as a folk medicine to treat migraine, arthritis, rheumatic diseases, and allergy. It has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Examples of common substituted azulenes obtained naturally are vetivazulene (4,8-dimethyl-2-isopropylazulene) from vetiver oil, and guaiazulene (1,4-dimethyl-7-isopropylazulene) from constituent of guaiac wood oil. Guaiazulene has been used as an antiulcer drug. Various biological activities such as antiphlogistic, antiallergic, bacteriostatic from azulen class compounds are expected. | ||
