FARNESYL ACETATE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

(2E,6E)-3,7,11-Trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trien-1-yl Acetate is an intermediate in the synthesis of JHSB3 (J211030). JHSB3 is an acyclic sesquiterpenoid that regulates many aspects of insect physiology. Juvenile Hormone regulate development, reproduction, diapause, and polyphenisms.

Definition

ChEBI: 3,7,11-Trimethyl-2,6,10-dodecatrienyl acetate is a sesquiterpenoid.

General Description

trans,trans-Farnesyl acetate is one of the most odor-active or key compounds of Hyuganatsu aroma in Hyuganatsu (Citrus tamurana Hort. ex Tanaka) peel oil. Asymmetric dihydroxylation of trans,trans-farnesyl acetate using the new Sharpless′ ligand has been studied.
