 | Hazard Information | Back Directory |  [Description]
  Hydroxyeitronellol has an odor reminiscent of rose and grape
hyacinth. May be prepared by hydrogenation (under pressure in 
presence of Raney Ni) of 3,7-dimethyl-7-hydroxy-octan-l-al; also 
in good yields by catalytic hydrogenation (using Raney Ni) of
1.2-epoxy-3,7-dimethyl-octan-7-ol. |  [Chemical Properties]
  Hydroxycitronellol has an odor reminiscent of rose and grape hyacinth.
 |  [Occurrence]
  Reported found in high bush blueberry, grapes, skim milk powder and white wine. |  [Definition]
