Chemical Structure
(R)-(+)-Citronellal
Synonym(s): (+)-Citronellal
- CAS No.: 2385-77-5
- Formula:C10H18O
- Molecular Weight:154.25
IUPAC Name: (R)-3,7-dimethyloct-6-enal
InChIKey: NEHNMFOYXAPHSD-SNVBAGLBSA-N
SMILES: C/C(C)=C\CC[C@@H](C)CC=O
Biological Activity: (R)-(+)-Citronellal ((+)-Citronellal) is a monoterpenoid compound and is one of the main components of essential oils from plants such as lemon grass. (R)-(+)-Citronellal has antibacterial, antifungal, and insecticidal activities. (R)-(+)-Citronellal alleviates the bitterness of caffeine by antagonizing the bitter taste receptors Tas2r43 (IC50 = 84 μM) and Tas2R46. (R)-(+)-Citronellal generates analgesic activity by activating the opioid receptor (broad-spectrum opioid receptor) pathway, and its effect is particularly significant for inflammatory pain[1][2][3][4].
