Description
(4R,8RS)-Limonene-8,9-epoxide is a monoterpene epoxide of minimum 95 % purity with CAS number 28098-67-1 and empirical formula C₁₀H₁₆O. The compound has a molar mass of 152,23 g/mol and a density of 0,988 g/cm³, making it a well-defined building block for stereochemical and natural-product studies. Its epoxide functionality supports ring-opening, functional-group interconversion, and structure–activity work in medicinal and flavour chemistry. Laboratories handling terpene metabolites, chiral intermediates, or analytical reference materials will find the stated purity and physical data useful for reproducible experimental design. The material integrates readily into workflows that demand consistent lot quality for synthetic or analytical applications involving oxygenated monoterpenes.

Questions about (4R,8RS)-Limonene-8,9-epoxide, min. 95 %, 500 mg
What is this article?
(4R,8RS)-Limonene-8,9-epoxide, min. 95 %, 500 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Essential oils & fragrances, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
An essential oil is the volatile fraction distilled or pressed from a named plant part. The species, the chemotype and a stated component, when the seller gives one, are the specification. A fragrance compound is a formulated mixture. The two should not be treated as the same bottle.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
