Geranyl chloride functions as a substrate in various organic synthesis reactions. It acts as a precursor in the production of terpenes and terpenoids. Geranyl chloride undergoes nucleophilic substitution reactions, allowing for the introduction of functional groups and the formation of new carbon-carbon bonds. Its mechanism of action involves participating in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, enabling the attachment of geranyl chloride to aromatic rings. Geranyl Chloride compound plays a role in the modification of organic molecules, contributing to the diversification of chemical structures in experimental applications.
