Chemical Information
FooDB Nametrans-Linalool 3,6-oxide
Description(±)-trans-Linalyl oxide, also known as (E)-linalool oxide or trans-Linalool oxide is an oxidized derivative of Linalool which is a terpene alcohol common in various flowers and spice plants. It belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tetrahydrofurans. These are heterocyclic compounds containing a saturated, aliphatic, five-membered ring where a carbon is replaced by an oxygen. From a biosynthetic point of view, trans-Linalool oxide is a monoterpenoid. Monoterpenoids are terpenes that contain 10 carbon atoms and are comprised of two isoprene units. The biosynthesis of monoterpenes is known to occur mainly through the methyl-erythritol-phosphate (MEP) pathway in plant cell plastids (PMID: 7640522). Geranyl diphosphate (GPP) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of cyclic monoterpenes. GPP undergoes several cyclization reactions to yield a diverse number of cyclic arrangements. Linalool oxide occurs in two distinctly different structural guises in nature. The most common structural form is based on a five member, furan-like ring structure. The less common form is based on a six member, pyran-like structure. Both types of linalool oxide exist as cis- and trans- isomers. Despite the differences in structure, the aromas of the different forms of linalool oxide have a strong family resemblance. The furan-based linalool oxide has a floral character, somewhat reminiscent of lavender, but this is dominated by the profile of black tea. The pyran-based linalool oxide is more obviously floral, with less resemblance to tea. It is used as a perfuming agent and a flavoring agent. trans-Linalool oxide exists as a clear or slightly yellow oil. It is a neutral, hydrophobic molecule that is insoluble in water. (±)-trans-Linalyl oxide is found within tea and ceylon cinnamons and has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as common oregano, sweet basils, garden tomatoes, gingers, and tarragons.
