Product Description: (-)-Isopulegol is prepared directly from the treatment of essential oil of citronella under solid supported acid catalysis and solvent-free microwave assisted ene-cyclisation. (-)-Isopulegol shows high activity in reacting with carbonyl compounds. (-)-Isopulegol can be used for antiviral activity research[1].
Applications: COVID-19-anti-virus
Formula: C10H18O
