Geranyl diphosphate diphosphatase (EC 3.1.7.11, geraniol synthase', geranyl pyrophosphate pyrophosphatase) is an enzyme with systematic name geranyl-diphosphate diphosphohydrolase. [1] [2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranyl diphosphate + H2O geraniol + diphosphate

This enzyme is isolated from Ocimum basilicum (basil) and Cinnamomum tenuipile (camphor tree).

Linalool refers to two enantiomers of a naturally occurring terpene alcohol found in many flowers and spice plants. Linalool has multiple commercial applications, the majority of which are based on its pleasant scent. A colorless oil, linalool is classified as an acyclic monoterpenoid. In plants, it is a metabolite, a volatile oil component, an antimicrobial agent, and an aroma compound. Linalool has uses in manufacturing of soaps, fragrances, food additives as flavors, household products, and insecticides. Esters of linalool are referred to as linalyl, e.g. linalyl pyrophosphate, an isomer of geranyl pyrophosphate.
