CAS 459-80-3

Geranic acid

Description:

Geranic acid, with the CAS number 459-80-3, is a naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acid characterized by its long carbon chain and the presence of a double bond in its structure. It is an isomer of citral and is known for its floral and citrus-like aroma, making it significant in the fragrance and flavor industries. Geranic acid typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The compound has a molecular formula that reflects its carboxylic acid functional group, which contributes to its acidity and reactivity. Geranic acid is also noted for its potential biological activities, including antimicrobial properties, and is studied for its role in various biochemical pathways. Its applications extend beyond cosmetics and food flavoring, as it may also serve as a precursor in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Overall, geranic acid is valued for both its sensory properties and its utility in chemical synthesis.
