Nootkatone is a natural organic compound and is the most important and expensive aromatic of grapefruit. It is a sesquiterpene and a ketone.
Nootkatone was previously thought to be one of the main chemical components of the smell and flavor of grapefruits. In high purity, it is usually found as colorless crystals. Crude extractives are liquid, viscous, and yellow. Nootkatone is typically extracted from grapefruit, but can also be manufactured with genetically modified organisms, or through the chemical or biochemical oxidation of valencene. It is also found in Alaska yellow cedar trees and vetiver grass.
Uses
Nootkatone in spray form has been shown as an effective repellent/insecticide against deer ticks and lone star ticks. It is also an effective repellent/insecticide against mosquitos and may repel bed bugs, head lice, and other insects. It is an environmentally friendly insecticide because it is a volatile essential oil that does not persist in the environment. It is non-toxic to humans, is an approved food additive, and “is commonly used in foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals”.
