γ-Undecalactone Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Undecylenic acid obtained by heating cracking of castor seed oil is formed by heating and cyclization with the participation of sulfuric acid (80~90℃, 6~8h).

Uses

Traditionally, the bark and leaves of the peach tree have been used as an anthelmintic, an expectorant, an astringent, and a diuretic, as well as to treat insomnia, cough, and constipation. In the 1970s, peach pits (Laetrile) were a popular but unproved treatment for cancer in other countries. Topically, peach is used to treat minor skin disorders such as burns, abrasions, blisters, scratches, eczema, psoriasis, and warts.
