Synthesis
Typical synthesis starts from myrcene[2] and involves a Diels–Alder reaction with acrolein to produce the cyclohexenecarbaldehyde group, this species is marketed as a fragrance in its own right, most commonly under the name 'myrac aldehyde'. Acid-catalyzed hydration of this completes the synthesis by forming the tertiary alcohol.
Safety
Lyral is known to act as a skin allergen and is listed as such in EU Directive 76/768/EEC.[3] It is commonly tested for in patients undergoing patch testing.[4]

gollark: Hmm, fine, maybe, then.
gollark: I suppose I could use my authority under rule 7 to rule accusations of nazi dogwhistles as rule 2 violations.
gollark: Can we ban accusations of Nazi dogwhistles?
