Identification
Common NameLinalyl acetate
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionLinalyl acetate is found in cardamom. Linalyl acetate is isolated from numerous plants and essential oils, e.g. clary sage, lavender, lemon etc. Linalyl acetate is a flavouring ingredient Linalyl acetate is a naturally-occurring phytochemical found in many flowers and spice plants. It is one of the principal components of the essential oils of bergamot and lavender. Chemically, it is the acetate ester of linalool, and the two often occur in conjunction.
