L-menthol is an organic compound, more specifically a monoterpenoid, made synthetically or obtained from the oils of corn mint, peppermint, or other mints. 
L-menthol is a waxy, clear or white crystalline substance, which is solid at room temperature and melts slightly above.
The main form of menthol occurring in nature is (−)-menthol, which is assigned the (1R,2S,5R) configuration. 
L-menthol has local anesthetic and counterirritant qualities, and it is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. 
L-menthol also acts as a weak κ-opioid receptor agonist.

Structure of L-menthol
Natural menthol exists as one pure stereoisomer, nearly always the (1R,2S,5R) form (bottom left corner of the diagram below).
In the natural compound, the isopropyl group is in the trans orientation to both the methyl and hydroxyl groups.
The (+)- and (−)-enantiomers of menthol are the most stable among these based on their cyclohexane conformations. 
With the ring itself in a chair conformation, all three bulky groups can orient in equatorial positions.
The two crystal forms for racemic menthol have melting points of 28 °C and 38 °C. 
Pure (−)-L-menthol has four crystal forms, of which the most stable is the α form, the familiar broad needles.

Biological properties of L-menthol
L-menthol's ability to chemically trigger the cold-sensitive TRPM8 receptors in the skin is responsible for the well-known cooling sensation it provokes when inhaled, eaten, or applied to the skin.
In this sense, L-menthol is similar to capsaicin, the chemical responsible for the spiciness of hot chilis (which stimulates heat sensors, also without causing an actual change in temperature).
L-menthol's analgesic properties are mediated through a selective activation of κ-opioid receptors.
L-menthol blocks calcium channels and voltage-sensitive sodium channels, reducing neural activity that may stimulate muscles.

Some studies show that L-menthol acts as GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator and increases Gabaergic transmission in PAG neurons.
L-menthol also shares anaesthetic properties similar to propofol, by modulating the same sites of the GABAA receptor.
L-menthol is widely used in dental care as a topical antibacterial agent, effective against several types of streptococci and lactobacilli.
L-menthol also lowers blood pressure and antagonizes vasoconstriction through TRPM8 activation.

Occurrence of L-menthol
Mentha arvensis (wild mint) is the primary species of mint used to make natural menthol crystals and natural menthol flakes. 
This species is primarily grown in the Uttar Pradesh region in India.
Menthol occurs naturally in peppermint oil (along with a little menthone, the ester menthyl acetate and other compounds), obtained from Mentha × piperita (peppermint).
Japanese menthol also contains a small percentage of the 1-epimer neomenthol.

Biosynthesis of  L-menthol
The biosynthesis of  L-menthol has been investigated in Mentha × piperita and the enzymes involved in have been identified and characterized.
L-menthol begins with the synthesis of the terpene limonene, followed by hydroxylation, and then several reduction and isomerization steps.
More specifically, the biosynthesis of (−) L-menthol takes place in the secretory gland cells of the peppermint plant. 
Geranyl diphosphate synthase (GPPS), first catalyzes the reaction of IPP and DMAPP into geranyl diphosphate. 

Production of L-menthol
Natural menthol is obtained by freezing peppermint oil. 
The resultant crystals of L-menthol are then separated by filtration.
Total world production of L-menthol in 1998 was 12,000 tonnes of which 2,500 tonnes was synthetic. 
In 2005, the annual production of synthetic L-menthol was almost double. 
Prices are in the $10–20/kg range with peaks in the $40/kg region but have reached as high as $100/kg. 
In 1985, L-menthol was estimated that China produced most of the world's supply of natural L-menthol, although L-menthol appears that India has pushed China into second place.

Applications of L-menthol

L-menthol is included in many products, and for a variety of reasons. These include:
-In nonprescription products for short-term relief of minor sore throat and minor mouth or throat irritation.
Examples: lip balms and cough medicines.

-As an antipruritic to reduce itching.
As a topical analgesic, it is used to relieve minor aches and pains, such as muscle cramps, sprains, headaches and similar conditions, alone or combined with chemicals such as camphor, eucalyptus oil or capsaicin. In Europe, it tends to appear as a gel or a cream, while in the U.S., patches and body sleeves are very frequently used.
Examples: Tiger Balm, or IcyHot patches or knee/elbow sleeves.

-As a penetration enhancer in transdermal drug delivery.
In decongestants for chest and sinuses (cream, patch or nose inhaler).
Examples: Vicks VapoRub, Mentholatum, Axe Brand, VapoRem, Mentisan.

-In certain medications used to treat sunburns, as it provides a cooling sensation (then often associated with aloe).
-In aftershave products to relieve razor burn.
-As a smoking tobacco additive in some cigarette brands, for flavor, and to reduce throat and sinus irritation caused by smoking. Menthol also increases nicotine receptor density,increasing the addictive potential of tobacco products.
-Commonly used in oral hygiene products and bad-breath remedies, such as mouthwash, toothpaste, mouth and tongue sprays, and more generally as a food flavor agent; such as in chewing gum and candy.
-As a pesticide against tracheal mites of honey bees.
-In perfumery, menthol is used to prepare menthyl esters to emphasize floral notes (especially rose).

-In first aid products such as "mineral ice" to produce a cooling effect as a substitute for real ice in the absence of water or electricity (pouch, body patch/sleeve or cream).
-In various patches ranging from fever-reducing patches applied to children's foreheads to "foot patches" to relieve numerous ailments (the latter being much more frequent and elaborate in -Asia, especially Japan: some varieties use "functional protrusions", or small bumps to massage one's feet as well as soothing them and cooling them down).
-As an antispasmodic and smooth muscle relaxant in upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
-In organic chemistry, menthol is used as a chiral auxiliary in asymmetric synthesis. For example, sulfinate esters made from sulfinyl chlorides and menthol can be used to make enantiomerically pure sulfoxides by reaction with organolithium reagents or Grignard reagents. Menthol reacts with chiral carboxylic acids to give diastereomic menthyl esters, which are useful for chiral resolution.

-L-menthol can be used as a catalyst for sodium production for the amateur chemist via the alcohol catalysed magnesium reduction process.
menthol is potentially ergogenic (performance enhancing) for athletic performance in hot environments

Reactions of L-menthol
L-menthol reacts in many ways like a normal secondary alcohol. 
L-menthol is oxidised to menthone by oxidising agents such as chromic acid or dichromate,though under some conditions the oxidation can go further and break open the ring. 
L-menthol is easily dehydrated to give mainly 3-menthene, by the action of 2% sulfuric acid. 
Phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5) gives menthyl chloride.

L-menthol is a white crystalline solid with a peppermint odor and taste.
L-menthol is a levo isomer of menthol, an organic compound made synthetically or obtained from peppermint or mint oils with flavoring and local anesthetic properties. 
When added to pharmaceuticals and foods, menthol functions as a fortifier for peppermint flavors. 
L-menthol also has a counterirritant effect on skin and mucous membranes, thereby producing a local analgesic or anesthetic effect.

L-menthol is a p-menthan-3-ol which has (1R,2S,5R)-stereochemistry. 
L-menthol is the most common naturally occurring enantiomer. 
L-menthol has a role as an antipruritic drug, an antitussive and an antispasmodic drug. 
L-menthol is an enantiomer of a (+)-menthol.
