(R)-(+)-Citronellal is a monoterpenoid aldehyde. It is a chiral organic compound used as a building block in organic synthesis to prepare various chiral compounds. It is also used as a chiral catalyst or ligand in asymmetric reactions.
Application
(R)-(+)-Citronellal can be used as a reactant to synthesize various compounds such as L-menthol, caparratriene, and chalcogen-containing nitrone derivatives.
The members of the Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) family are capable of catalyzing the asymmetric reduction of (E/Z)-citral to (R)-citronellal-a key intermediate in the synthesis of L-menthol. The applications of OYE-mediated biotransformation are usually hampered by its insufficient enantioselectivity and

This paper reports the syntheses and characterization of ethylmorpholine substituted citronellal thiosemicarbazone copper(II) and nickel(II) metal complexes. The compounds were characterized through elemental analyses and spectroscopic (IR, UV-Vis, NMR, MS) methods. The X-ray analysis of the two complexes shows that
Citronellal is a monoterpene reported to be a major component of the essential oils in various aromatic species of plants. The present study evaluated the central nervous system depressant and antinociceptive properties of citronellal through behavioral experimental models. Following intraperitoneal

Citronellal (CT) is a monoterpenoid and the major constituent of the mixture of terpenoids that give the citronella oil its lemon scent. Citronella oil is widely used around the world for various purposes and is mainly obtained from plants of
Fast GC analysis of sweet orange essential oil in hexane. Key components identified includes: β-Farnesene; α-Huµlene; Germacrene D; (+)-Valencene; Bicyclogermacrene; (+)-δ-Cadinene
