CAS 107-75-5: Hydroxycitronellal

Description: Hydroxycitronellal, with the CAS number 107-75-5, is an organic compound classified as a monoterpenoid and an aldehyde. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a floral, citrus-like odor, making it a popular ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics. Hydroxycitronellal is soluble in alcohol and oils but has limited solubility in water. Its molecular formula is C10H18O, and it features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and an aldehyde group (-CHO), contributing to its reactivity and fragrance properties. This compound is often used as a fragrance enhancer and is also noted for its potential allergenic properties, which has led to regulatory scrutiny in cosmetic formulations. Additionally, hydroxycitronellal can be synthesized from citronellal, a natural component derived from essential oils. Its applications extend beyond perfumery to include use in flavoring agents and as a potential intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals.
