Alpha-terpineol (CAS 98-55-5) is a monocyclic terpene compound that is naturally found in plant essential oils such as turpentine oil, neroli oil, and lemon oil. It is often used as the main ingredient of soap flavors. Its molecular formula is C10H18O and its molecular weight is 154.25. Alpha-terpineol has a common appearance as a colorless viscous liquid or a low melting point transparent crystal, with a sweet fragrance similar to lilac and a slight camphor breath.

Uses:

Spices and flavors:
Because of its strong alkali resistance, Alpha-terpineol is widely used to mix soaps and cosmetic flavors, especially lilac and lily of the valley.
