Abstract

In this study was to obtain optimum conditions a reactive extraction process in isolation eugenol from clove essential oil associated with the temperature and time process. Natural Products are compounds that can be found or extracted in nature and usually produced by plants, animals, and/or fungi. Molecules originating in nature have long held in the importance in Chemistry. Essential oil and 0.8 N NaOH solutions at a ratio of 1:1.1 to the reactor. Turn on the hot plate and set the appropriate reaction temperature variables of the study and set the stirrer speed of 100 rpm. After a reaction time achieved according to the study variables (minutes) the reaction product was then separated. Distillate was eugenol and the residue was NaCl residual reaction products. Eugenol distillate which was then measured its volume and analyzed eugenol concentration by GC.

Keywords: Clove Essential Oil, Eugenol, Reactive Extraction, Vacuum Distillation.
