Natural Product Identification
Common Name(2z)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl pentanoate
DescriptionGeranyl valerate, also known as geranyl pentanoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohol esters. These are ester derivatives of a fatty alcohol. Geranyl valerate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Geranyl valerate is a fruity, pineapple, and rose tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Geranyl valerate has been detected, but not quantified in, alcoholic beverages. (2z)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl pentanoate is found in Artemisia arborescens. This could make geranyl valerate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
