TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 94(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that citronellol is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of citronellol from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.1X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.02 mm Hg(3), and water solubility, 200 mg/L(4). Even though the vapor pressure is low environmentally at standard temperature and pressure, there is a detectable odor; therefore, citronellol may volatilize from dry soil(SRC). An 80-90% of Theoretical BOD using activated sludge in the OECD 301F test(5) suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). Citronellol was also classified as readily biodegradable by the results of the OECD 301C test (modified MITI) with 65% degradation in 4 weeks(6) and by a DOC Method F test (100% biodegradation in 15 days)(6). Citronellol absorbs at wavelengths >290 nm(7) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis on soil surfaces exposed to sunlight(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 94(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that citronellol is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.1X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.02 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 200 mg/L(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2.4 and 21 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 177(SRC), from its log Kow of 3.91(7) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). An 80-90% of Theoretical BOD using activated sludge in the OECD 301F test(8) suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in water(SRC). Citronellol was also classified as readily biodegradable by the results of the OECD 301C test (modified MITI) with 65% degradation in 4 weeks(9) and by a DOC Method F test (100% biodegradation in 15 days)(9). Citronellol is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(3). Citronellol is an olefin and olefins in surface waters exposed to sunlight react with photo-oxidants (such as hydroxyl radicals, peroxy radicals and singlet oxygen) with a half-life on the order of 25 days(10).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), citronellol, which has a vapor pressure of 0.02 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase citronellol is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 2.3 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.70X10-10 cu cm/molecule-sec at 24 deg(3). Citronellol is also degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with ozone and nitrate radicals. The half-life for the reaction with ozone is estimated to be 1.1 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.4X10-16 cu cm/molecule-sec at 24 °C(3). The half-life for the reaction with nitrate radicals is estimated to be 4 minutes(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.21X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 24 °C(4). The nitrate radical (NO3) is the dominant atmospheric oxidant during the night-time in most atmospheric environments(5), therefore, night-time degradation appears to be a major fate process for citronellol(SRC). Citronellol absorbs at wavelengths >290 nm(6) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Citronellol has been found in nature, and it has been reported in about 70 essential oils. It is registered for pesticide use in the USA but approved pesticide uses may change periodically and so federal, state and local authorities must be consulted for currently approved uses. It is also used in perfumery. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Adult male volunteers with no known allergic reactions were patch-tested on their back for 48 hr with 32% citronellol. After 48 hr, patches were removed and the skin was cleaned of any residual test material. Moderate irritation was observed. A patch test using a 1% concentration of citronellol in acetone gave a positive reaction in subjects allergic to citronella oil. ANIMAL STUDIES: Citronellol applied full strength to intact or abraded rabbit skin for 24 hr under occlusion was moderately irritating. Severe irritation was observed in rabbits and guinea pigs exposed to 100% compound (unoccluded) for 24, 48 or 72 hr. Citronellol was not mutagenic when tested in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: Golden Orfe (Leuciscus idus) were exposed to this chemical under static conditions for 96 hours. No mortalities were seen in the control and 4.64 mg/L groups. At 10 mg/L, apathy was noted up to 24 hr, but no mortalities were noted at 96 hr. At 21.5, 46.4 and 100 mg/L, 100% mortality was seen 1 hour after exposure.

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ Golden Orfe (Leuciscus idus) were exposed to nominal concentrations of 0, 4.64, 10, 21.5, 46.4 or 100 mg/L of this chemical under static conditions for 96 hours. No mortalities were seen in the control and 4.64 mg/L groups. At 10 mg/L, apathy was noted up to 24 hours, but no mortalities were noted at 96 hours. At 21.5, 46.4 and 100 mg/L, 100% mortality was seen 1 hour after exposure. 96-hr LC50 > 10 mg/L

(+)-Citronellol occurs in natural oils from Boronia citriodora (total citronellol content about 80%) and Eucalyptus citriodora (total citronellol content 15-20%)(1); (-)-Citronellol is the predominant enantiomer in geranium and rose oils, both of which may contain up to 50% citronellols(1). Citronellol has reported to occur in about 70 essential oils(2). It reportedly occurs in guava fruit, orange, bilberry, blackcurrant, nutmeg, ginger, corn, mint oil, mustard, hop oil, tea, coriander seed, and cardamom(2). Essential oils from twigs and needles of the Balkan pine (Pinus peuce Gris.) grown in northern Greece was found to contain citronellol in the twig oil (12.48% of total) and needle oil (13.42% of total)(3). Trace concentrations of citronellol (<20 ug/kg) were detected in the flowers of Japan honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica)(4). Citronellol has been detected in tobacco(5). The essential oil of rose water, derived from Rosa damascena Mill. from northern India, contained citronellol at concentrations of 15.9-35.3%(6).

Citronellol is emitted into the ambient air from household products such as pine-oil based cleaners, orange oil-based degreasers and plug-in air fresheners(1). Citronellol was detected in volatile emissions from the leaves of Eucalyptus citriodora(2).

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of citronellol can be estimated to be 94(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that citronellol is expected to have high mobility in soil.

Citronellol is widespread in nature in both enantiomeric forms, the richest sources being rose and geranium(1). Citronellol is reported to occur in about 70 essential oils(2). Citronellol has been detected and quantified in numerous plant species(3).

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ The fragrance mix (FM I), established in 1977, detects the majority, but not all cases of contact allergy to fragrances. Based on European research 2002/2003, fragrance mix II (FM II) was developed to supplement FM I. In 2005, the German Contact Dermatitis Research Group (DKG) added FM II to their baseline series. /The objective was/ to evaluate reactions to FM II and its constituents in routine patch testing. Retrospective data analysis of the Information Network of Departments of Dermatology (IVDK), 2005-2008, of patch test results with FM II and its constituents. A total of 35,633 patients were patch tested with FM II as part of the DKG baseline series. Of these, 1742 (4.9%) reacted positively. Concomitant reactions to FM I were observed in 41.9% of the patients reacting to FM II. In 367 FM II-positive patients, a full breakdown test of the mix was performed. Of these, 47.7% reacted to hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde, 16.1% to citral, 11.4% to farnesol, 3.8% to hexyl cinnamal, 2.7% to coumarin, and 2.5% to citronellol. FM II is an important screening and diagnostic tool to detect fragrance allergy. Hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde is the most important fragrance allergen in FM II.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ Fragrance mix II (FM II) was initiated to detect contact hypersenstitivity (CH) to fragrances that could not have been identified previously. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this multicenter study was to map the frequency of CH to FM II and its components in Hungary. METHODS: Six centers participated in the survey from 2009 to 2010. A total off 565 patients (434 women and 131 men) with former skin symptoms provoked by scented products were patch tested. The tests were performed with Brial GmbH D-Greven allergens. In the environmental patch test series, FM II, FM I, Myroxylon pereirae, colophonium, wood-tar mix, propolis, and sesquiterpene lactone mix were tested as fragrance allergens. The FM II components (citral, farnesol, coumarin, citronellol, alpha-hexyl-cinnamaldehyde, and hydroxy-isohexyl-3-cyclohexene-carboxaldehyde [Lyral]) were also tested. RESULTS: Contact hypersenstitivity to any fragrances was detected in 28.8%, to FM II in 17.2% of the patients. Contact hypersenstitivity to hydroxy-isohexyl-3-cyclohexene-carboxaldehyde was observed in 7.3%, to coumarin in 5.1%, to alpha-hexyl-cinnamaldehyde in 3.5%, to citral in 3.4%, to farnesol in 2.5%, and to citronellol in 1.2%. Of the FM II-positive cases, 48.4% showed isolated CH reaction. CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of CH to FM II is 17.2% in the tested, selected Hungarian population. The CH to FM II and its components could not have been revealed without the present test materials.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ A 24-hr patch test using full strength citronellol produced no irritation reactions in 20 subjects.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ A maximization test was carried out on 25 volunteers. The material was tested at a concentration of 6% in petrolatum and produced no sensitization reactions.

IFRA 51st Amendment - Guidance for the use of IFRA Standards

Restriction: This material should be used only in the limited quantity as stated in the Standard

Citronellol is manufactured on a commercial scale by the hydrogenation of nerol and geraniol, which in turn are made either from alpha- or beta-pinene. Hydrogenation of nerol and geraniol over a copper chromite catalyst gives a high yield of citronellol. Fractional distillation of the crude product produces a perfumery-quality citronellol. Geraniol can also be hydrogenated selectively to citronellol, without forming tetrahydrogeraniol, through use of a Raney cobalt catalyst. However, partial hydrogenation using a nickel catalyst does give some tetrahydrogeraniol. The product contains nerol, geraniol, and tetrahydrogeraniol and has odor properties closer to materials derived from citronella oil, and is therefore useful as a perfumery material.
