CAS 51532-26-4
:Geranyl octanoate
Description:
Geranyl octanoate, with the CAS number 51532-26-4, is an ester formed from geraniol and octanoic acid. It is characterized by its pleasant, fruity aroma, which makes it a popular choice in the fragrance and flavoring industries. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Geranyl octanoate is known for its stability under normal conditions, although it may be sensitive to extreme heat and light, which can lead to degradation. Its molecular structure includes a long hydrocarbon chain, contributing to its lipophilic nature. In addition to its use in perfumery and food flavoring, geranyl octanoate may also have applications in cosmetics and personal care products due to its aromatic properties. As with many esters, it is generally regarded as safe for use in food and cosmetic applications, although specific regulatory guidelines should always be followed.
