The enzyme R-linalool synthase (EC 4.2.3.26) catalyzes the chemical reaction

geranyl diphosphate + H2O {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } (3R)-linalool + diphosphate

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically those carbon-oxygen lyases acting on phosphates. The systematic name of this enzyme class is geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase . Other names in common use include (3R)-linalool synthase, and (−)-3R-linalool synthase.
