CAS 106-25-2: Nerol

Description: Nerol, with the CAS number 106-25-2, is a naturally occurring monoterpene alcohol that is primarily found in essential oils, particularly in those derived from citrus fruits and certain flowers. It has a chemical formula of C10H18O and is characterized by its pleasant floral aroma, often described as sweet and rose-like. Nerol is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in alcohol and oils but only slightly soluble in water. It has a relatively low boiling point, which makes it volatile. Nerol is commonly used in the fragrance industry for perfumes and cosmetics, as well as in food flavoring. Additionally, it exhibits potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and natural product research. Its structural isomer, geraniol, shares similar properties but differs in the arrangement of its double bonds, highlighting the significance of stereochemistry in the behavior of terpenes.
