Chemical Properties |
clear light yellow liquid |
|
Occurrence |
Citronellal is a major constituent of citronella oil, which is derived from various species of plants, including Cymbopogon nardus and Cymbopogon winterianus. Citronella oil is well-known for its insect-repellent properties and is commonly used in products like candles, lotions, and sprays to deter mosquitoes and other insects. |
|
Description |
Citronellal is a natural compound found in citronella oil and various essential oils, known for its lemony scent and insect-repellent properties. It has diverse applications, including its use as a fragrance ingredient and its potential in antifungal activities. |
|
Definition |
ChEBI: A monoterpenoid, the main component of citronella oil which gives it its distinctive lemon aroma. |
| Uses |
Citronellal is valued for its pleasant lemony scent and is often used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, soaps, and other cosmetic products. (+)-Citronellal is extracted from citronella oils via fractional distillation. When needed, it can be further purified using addition compounds, such as the bisulfite derivative. Citronellal is widely used in the fragrance and perfumery industry due to its fresh, lemony aroma. In addition to its fragrance uses, citronellal is sometimes employed as a flavoring agent in the food industry. |
|
Aroma threshold values |
Detection: 31 to 100 ppb |
|
Taste threshold values |
Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: floral, green, rosy and citrus-lemon. |
|
Flammability and Explosibility |
Nonflammable |
|
Synthesis |
Can be prepared by chemical synthesis or by fractional distillation of natural oils, such as citronella. Industrially prepared by hydrogenation of β-citronellol or by catalytic hydrogenation of citral; also in the laboratory by dehydration of hydroxydihydrocitronellal. |

The major constituents of the essential oil were identified as being (R)-citronellal 2 (45.4%), citronellol 5 (7.7%), geraniol 6 (19%) and limonene 7 (5.2%). The citronellal used in this work was isolated from the essential oil by distillation under reduced pressure (4 kPa) and its purity confirmed by GC.
