The acute oral LD50 in rats was reported as 10.6 g/kg (Jenner, Hagan, Taylor, Cook & Fitzhugh, 1964). The acute dermal LD50 in rabbits was reported as 5 g/kg (Shelanski, 1973). |
Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Geranyl butyrate has a characteristic fresh, fruity, rose-like odor
and sweet apricot-like taste. Geranyl butyrate is synthesized by
heating geraniol and butyryl chloride in the presence of pyridine,
or from geraniol and butyric anhydride in the presence of camphor
sulfonic acid. | [Chemical Properties]

Geranyl butyrate has a characteristic fresh, fruity, rose-like odor and sweet apricot-like taste. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in the essential oil of Darwinia grandifora; it has been identifed in lavender oil and in other essential oils Also reported found in citrus peel oils, celery leaves and stalks, tomato, thymus, passion fruit, mango, Calfornia pepper and babaco fruit (Carica pentagona Heilborn) | [Preparation]
By heating geraniol and butyryl chloride in the presence of pyridine, or from geraniol and butyric anhydride in the pres- ence of camphor sulfonic acid. | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 5 ppm: sweet, fruity, green, slightly foral with a lingering tropical fruity aftertaste. | [General Description]
Geranyl butyrate is one of the key esters that may be contributing to the characteristic flavor of jamun fruit. It also occurs in tomato juice and tomato-based dried products. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
