Geranyl phenylacetate

Description:
Geranyl phenylacetate is an organic compound classified as an ester, formed from the reaction of geraniol and phenylacetic acid. It is characterized by its pleasant floral and fruity aroma, making it a popular choice in the fragrance and flavor industries. The compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its low volatility and good solubility in organic solvents. Geranyl phenylacetate has a relatively low boiling point, which allows it to be used effectively in various applications, including perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavoring. Additionally, it exhibits some antimicrobial properties, which can enhance its utility in preserving products. Its chemical structure includes a geranyl group, which contributes to its aromatic profile, and a phenylacetate moiety, which adds to its stability and sensory characteristics. As with many esters, it is generally considered safe for use in regulated amounts, although it is advisable to conduct thorough safety assessments for specific applications.
