| EPA chemical information | Information provided by: ofmpub.epa.gov (external link) |
| use | this product has fresh lemon flavor and is suitable for preparing floral, fruit-flavored cosmetics and soap essence. |
| Production method | The reaction of citral and hydroxylamine is oxime to produce lemon aldoxime, and then acetic anhydride is used as a decolorant to convert into limononitrile. Then limononitrile is prepared by neutralization washing, stratified separation and reduced pressure distillation. |
