Acetyleugenol is a phenylpropanoid compound found in cloves. It is the second in abundance to the related compound eugenol in certain extract preparations.[1][2] Like eugenol, its found in several plants such as Acacia nilotica and Piper betle[3][4][5] and has similar antibacterial and antifungal properties on C. albicans and S. mutans.[6] It inhibits aggregation of platelets and has partial agonistic activity on AhR.[2][7][8]

Uses

Acetyleugenol has characteristic odor reminiscent of cloves and thus used as fragrance.[9][10]
