Safranal, Safran (Crocus sativus) çiçeklerinden elde edilen safranda bulunan bir organik bileşiktir. Safranın aromasından başlıca sorumlu olan bileşenidir.

Zeaksantin isimli karotenoidin yıkımı sonucunda, pikrokrosin yoluyla meydana geldiği düşünülmektedir.

Farmakoloji

Safranal, etkili bir antikonvülsandır, GABA_A reseptörlerine agonist olarak etki eder. Safranal ayrıca antioksidan ve serbest radikal toplayıcı etkisine sahiptir ve in vitro kanser hücrelerine sitotoksik etkisi vardır.
