Rose oxide is an organic compound of the pyran class and the monoterpene class and a fragrance found in roses and rose oil. The compound has a cis- and a trans-isomer, each with a (+)- and (−)-stereoisomer, but only the (−)-cis isomer (odor threshold 0.5 ppb) is responsible for the typical rose (floral green) fragrance.[1] Rose oxide also contributes to the flavor of some fruits such as lychee and Gewürztraminer.

Rose oxide isomers

Rose oxide is produced industrially beginning with photooxygenation of citronellol to give the allyl hydroperoxide which is then reduced with sodium sulfite to provide the diol. Ring-closure with sulfuric acid forms both the cis- and trans-isomers in equal amounts.[2]
