Natural Product Identification
Common NameCitronellyl pentanoate
DescriptionCitronellyl pentanoate, also known as citronellyl valerate or E469, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohol esters. These are ester derivatives of a fatty alcohol. Citronellyl pentanoate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Citronellyl pentanoate is a herbal, honey, and rose tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Citronellyl pentanoate has been detected, but not quantified in, herbs and spices. Citronellyl pentanoate is found in Boronia citriodora and Curcuma longa. This could make citronellyl pentanoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
