Description | Citronellyl acetate, also known as Citronellol acetate or beta-citronellol acetate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohol esters. These are ester derivatives of a fatty alcohol. Citronellyl acetate is the acetate ester of citronellol. Citronellyl acetate exists as a clear, transparent liquid. It is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Citronellyl acetate has a floral, rose, fruity, citrus aroma with a fruity, pear and apple-like taste. It is an approved food additive and can be used in apple, pear, banana and berry flavours. Citronellyl acetate is naturally produced by many plants and is found in carrot seeds, celery, citronella, black currants, ginger, grapefruit, lemons, mushrooms, orange, passion fruit, black pepper and wine. It is found in highest concentration in wild carrots, carrots, and lemons and in a lower concentration in mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine). Citronellyl acetate is one of several esters found in cannabis plants (PMID: 6991645 ). |
