Application

(R)-(+)-β-Citronellol can be used to prepare: (R)-(+)-β-citronellyl acetate by treating with vinyl acetate via trans esterification reaction using immobilized Rhizomucor miehei lipase as biocatalyst. (R)-(+)-citronellal and (R)-(+)-citronellic acid by the oxidation reaction. Citronellol aziridine by treating with 2,2,2-trichloroethoxysulfonamide by intermolecular olefin aziridination.It can also be used as a starting material for the synthesis of (+)-integerrinecic acid lactone.

(R)-(+)-β-Citronellol can undergo:Oxidation to form (R)-(+)-citronellal, an antifungal agent and (R)-(+)-citronellic acid. Intermolecular olefin aziridination with 2,2,2-trichloroethoxysulfonamide to form citronellol aziridine for ring-opening reactions.Series of reactions to form α2δ-ligands for treating generalized anxiety disorder and insomnia.
