C10H14O, Mr 150.22, oil. Monocyclic monoterpene aldehyde occurring in both enantiomeric forms (/ )-(- )- and(S)-(-)-P.,bp. 104°C(900 Pa), [o]d 150.7°. LD50 (rat p. 0.) 2500 mg/kg. (-)-P. constitutes ca. 50% of Perilla oil from Perilla arguta and P. frutescens var. crispa (Lamiaceae), (+)-P. constitutes ca. 60% of the Philippine Sulpicia oil from Sulpicia orsuami and also occurs in Siler trilobum, Siam latifolium. Citrus reticulata, and other plants. The ( )-oxime of (5)-(-)-P. is used in Japan as a sweetener Perilla sugar and has a 2000-fold higher sweetness than saccharose.

After the extraction of lipid and nonlipid components from the leaves of mandarin orange Citrus reticulata, the lipid fraction was further separated by PTLC to determine different lipid classes that affect the chemical deterrence of C. reticulata to the leaf cutting ecat Acromyrmex octopinosus. These lipids seem to be less attractive to the ants [81a]. The metabolism of palmitate in the peripheral nerves of normal and Trembler mice was studied, and the polar lipid fraction purified by PTLC was used to determine the fatty acid composition. It was found that the fatty acid composition of the polar fraction was abnormal, correlating with the decreased overall palmitate elongation and severely decreased synthesis of saturated long-chain fatty acids (in mutant nerves) [81b]. 

Mandarin oil is obtained by cold pressing the peel of mandarin oranges, the fruits of Citrus reticulata Blanco (Rutaceae). The oil is a greenish-yellow to reddish-orange liquid, depending on the degree of ripeness of the fruit, with a pale blue fluorescence and a characteristic odor, reminiscent of mandarin peel. 

Mandarin Oil, Coldpressed, occurs as a clear, dark orange to red-yellow or brown-orange liquid with a pleasant, orange odor. It often shows a blue fluorescence in diffused light. Oils produced from unripe fruit often show a green color. It is the oil obtained by expression of the peels of the ripe fruit of the mandarin orange, Citrus reticulata Blanco var. Mandarin (Fam. Rutaceae). It is soluble in most fixed oils and in mineral...

The components include d-limonene, n-octylaldehyde, n-decylaldehyde, citral, linalool, citronella, cadinene, terpenes, aldehydes, alcohols, and esters (FCTXAV 16,637,78). Red-orange to brown-orange liquid orange-like odor. Sol in fixed oils, mineral oil sltly sol in propylene glycol insol in glycerin. 

Cyclohexane monoterpenes are a chemically diverse group of monoterpenoids that occur in the plant kingdom mainly as hydrocarbons, alcohols, ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons, and phenols (Fig. 5). The saturated hydrocarbon trans-p-menthme (El) is a constituent of the oil of turpentine and the resin of pine (Pinaceae) trees. Its unsaturated analogs, namely (i )-(- -)-limonene (E2) [present in oil of orange (Citrus aurantium) and mandarin (Citrus reticulata, Rutaceae) peel oil] a-terpinene (E3) and terpinolene (E4) in some Citrus, Juniperus, Mentha and Pinus species (i )-(-)-a-phellandrene (E5) in Eucalyptus phellandra (Myrtaceae) and (5)-(- -)-3-phellandrene (E6) in water feimel (Phel-landrium aquaticum, Umbelliferae), are components of many plant volatile oils. The rich chemical diversity of cyclohexane monoterpene alcohols is apparent from the natural occurrence of all four pairs of / -menthan-3-ol enantiomers, for... 

An interesting variability is observed in plants from Rutaceae family. In bergamot (Citrus auranthium Bergamia), neroli and petitgrain (Citrus auranhtium ssp. amara), and lime oils (Citrus aurantifolia) the prevalence of (-)-linalool has been found. In orange (Citrus sinensis) and tangerine (Citrus reticulata) (+)-linalool is the dominant enantiomer, while in lemon (Citrus limon) and grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) the enantiomeric ratio of linalool is close to racemate [31,40]. 

The Petitgrain oils of the citrus varieties mandarin (Citrus reticulata Blanco) and lemon (Citrus limon (L.) Burm.) are also commercially available, but to a far lesser extent than for bitter orange. Mandarin Petitgrain oil is characterised by its unique sensory impact, which apart from y-terpinene (20-25%) results from its high content of methyl N-methylanthranilate (40-50%) [106-108].
