 |  | p-Menthene-8-thiol Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | p-Menthene-8-thiol has been identified in grapefruit juice. It
is a liquid with an extremely powerful, obnoxious odor; when diluted, it has the
typical aroma of fresh grapefruit juice. Its odor threshold value is extremely low:
2×10-5 μg/kg for the (+)-R and 8×10-5 μg/kg for the (?)-S isomer. |  | Chemical Properties | 1-p-Menthene-8-thiol has an aroma and taste of grapefruit in dilute solution. |  | Occurrence | Reported found in grapefruit juice. |  | Definition | ChEBI: 2-(4-Methylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)propane-2-thiol is a p-menthane monoterpenoid. |  | Aroma threshold values | Aroma characteristics at 0.01%: grapefruit, sulfurous catty, citrus, thiomenthone, slightly cooling, green
rindy, juicy with nootkatone. |  | Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 0.01 ppm: bitter, waxy, citrus, clean grapefruit, fresh-squeezed juicy with nootkatone
and orange juice nuances. |
