ChEBI: A pinane monoterpenoid that is a bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane substituted by two methyl groups at position 6, a methylidene group at position 2 and a hydroxy group at position 3.

Production Methods

Pinocarveol is produced from Pinyl aminoacetate or -nitrate with Nitrous acid, by isolation from Eucalyptus oil tail fractions, by Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction of Pinocarvone, or by Autoxidation of beta-Pinene with Cobalt siccative or by oxidation with Selenium oxide.

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 25 ppm: camphoraceous, woody, pine-like with fresh, cooling minty undernotes
