What is Ethyl geranyl ether?
Chemical properties
Ethyl geranyl ether is a colorless oily liquid. B.P. 214℃. Sp.Gr. 0.87. Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, miscible with oils. Diffusive-green, fresh-leafy, somewhat grassy and sweet odor of moderate tenacity. The greenness tends to be vegetable-like, sometimes described as “lettuce-juice’’-like, while the sueetness is almost floral.
The Uses of Ethyl geranyl ether
Ethyl Geranylether can be used for odor masking compositions containing fragrant substances for hair cosmetics.
Definition
ChEBI: Geranyl ethyl ether is a monoterpenoid.
Preparation
From Geranyl chloride plus Sodium cthoxide in Ethyl alcohol. Also from Linalool by isomerization under ethylalcoholic conditions.
Safety Profile
