CAS 2216-51-5
:(-)-Menthol
Description:
(-)-Menthol, with the CAS number 2216-51-5, is a naturally occurring compound classified as a monoterpene alcohol. It is primarily derived from peppermint and other mint oils, contributing to their characteristic aroma and flavor. This compound exists in several stereoisomeric forms, with the (-)-enantiomer being the most prevalent and biologically active. (-)-Menthol is known for its cooling sensation, which is a result of its interaction with the TRPM8 receptor, making it widely used in products such as topical analgesics, oral hygiene products, and confectionery. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, with a characteristic minty odor. (-)-Menthol is soluble in alcohol and oils but has limited solubility in water. Additionally, it exhibits antimicrobial properties and has been studied for its potential therapeutic effects, including anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Its versatility and pleasant sensory attributes make it a valuable ingredient in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food.
