Myrtle-leaved orange, or chinotto, is a Chinese lesser-known citrus, nowadays cultivated in all the Mediterranean area of Italy. Its fruits are traditionally used in the confectionary and beverage industries: the former mainly uses the unripe fruits, while the juice of the ripe ones is the core ingredient of the well-known Italian soft drink “Chinotto”. In the present work, the compositions of several accessions of chinotto fruit peel essential oils (EOs) have been analyzed by GC-MS: in particular, i) fresh specimens from Savona (Liguria, Italy) at different ripening stages, as well as a dried ripe one; ii) two accessions from Pisa (Tuscany, Italy), of which one native and one transplanted from Savona. A comparison of the analyzed samples with literature reported EO compositions has been performed by means of multivariate statistical anal. The aim was to assess the influence of both the ripening stage and the geog. area of collection on the EO, assessing which factor influenced it the most. The ripening stage influence on the EO composition was found to be less significant compared to the geog. area of growth of the specimens. The statistical analyses, indeed, evidenced a proximity in the compositions obtained from the different ripening stages, whereas greater differences were evidenced for samples at the same ripening phase, but coming from different regions. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as Octyl acetate (cas: 112-14-1Application of 112-14-1).
Octyl acetate (cas: 112-14-1) belongs to esters. Volatile esters with characteristic odours are used in synthetic flavours, perfumes, and cosmetics. Certain volatile esters are used as solvents for lacquers, paints, and varnishes. Because of their lack of hydrogen-bond-donating ability, esters do not self-associate. Consequently, esters are more volatile than carboxylic acids of similar molecular weight.Application of 112-14-1
