L-Citronellol (CAS 7540-51-4)
QUICK LINKS
L-Citronellol is a compound that is widely researched in the field of organic chemistry due to its importance as a naturally occurring fragrance. It is extensively studied for its olfactory properties and is used as a key ingredient in the formulation of various scents and flavorings. The compound′s role in the synthesis of other fragrance chemicals, particularly through chemical reactions that involve the modification of its functional groups, is also a subject of interest. In addition to its applications in perfumery, L-citronellol is used in studies on plant-insect interactions, as it is a major component of the essential oils of several plant species that serve to repel or attract specific insects. Its enantiomeric purity is another area of focus, as the L-enantiomer has a different scent profile compared to its racemic mixture or the D-enantiomer.
