Geranyl isobutyrate

Description:
Geranyl isobutyrate is an ester formed from geraniol and isobutyric acid, characterized by its pleasant, fruity aroma, which makes it a popular choice in the fragrance and flavor industries. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound typically exhibits a boiling point that is higher than many simple esters, reflecting its larger molecular structure. Geranyl isobutyrate is known for its stability under normal conditions, although it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. It is often used in perfumery and as a flavoring agent due to its sweet, floral scent reminiscent of citrus and tropical fruits. Additionally, it may have applications in cosmetics and personal care products. As with many esters, it is important to handle geranyl isobutyrate with care, as it may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Always refer to safety data sheets for specific handling and safety information.
