Common NameLinalyl acetate
DescriptionLinalyl acetate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyclic monoterpenoids. These are monoterpenes that do not contain a cycle. The biosynthesis of monoterpenes is known to occur mainly through the methyl-eritritol-phosphate (MEP) pathway in the plastids. Geranyl diphosphate (GPP) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of monoterpenes. Linalyl acetate occurs naturally and is found in many flowers and spices. It can be isolated from numerous plants and essential oils, such as clary sage, lavender, lemon, cardamom. It is also one of the principal components of the essential oils of bergamot and lavender. Chemically, it is the acetate ester of linalool, and the two often occur in conjunction. Linalyl acetate is a flavouring ingredient and it tastes similar to how it smells, with a pleasant fruity odor reminiscent of bergamot mint oil. It is found in Eau de Cologne mint. As a volatile terpene, linalyl acetate is also combustible. Linalyl acetate has been detected as a volatile component in cannabis plant samples (PMID: 26657499 ).
