3,7-Dimethyl-1-octanol Usage And Synthesis
Chemical PropertiesTetrahydrogeraniol has been identified in citrus oils and is a colorless liquid with a waxy, rose-petal-like odor. It is prepared by hydrogenation of geraniol or citronellol in the presence of a nickel catalyst and is a by-product in the synthesis of citronellol from geraniol or nerol. Because of its stability, it is often used to perfume household products.
Chemical Properties3,7-Dimethyl-1-octanol has a sweet, rosy odor and bitter tas
Chemical PropertiesClear colorless liquid
Uses3,7-Dimethyl-1-octanol was employed as medium supplement in the anaerobic enrichment cultures of Pseudomonas citronellolis.2
PreparationUsually prepared by hydrogenation of geraniol, citronellol or citronellal.
Production Methods3,7-Dimethyl-1-octanol is commercially produced by the reduction of geraniol or by the reduction of citronellol, citronellal, or citral. It is used in fragrances and in foods.
Aroma threshold valuesAroma characteristics at 1%: fresh fatty, waxy, soapy, aldehydic citrus with lemon, lime and orange nuances. It has rosy and green woody notes
Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 1 to 10 ppm: fatty, waxy, soapy with floral rosy and fresh citrus-woody nuances. Natural occurrence: Reported found in lemon, lemon peel oil and thyme; corresponds to the dl-form of dihydro-citronellol.
General Description3,7-Dimethyl-1-octanol is an fragrance ingredient and its toxicologic and dermatologic review as a fragrance ingredient was reported.
Flammability and ExplosibilityNon flammable
Safety ProfileModerately toxic by skin contact. A skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
