Abstract:
The present invention relates to 2-(2,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)acetaldehyde and derivatives thereof, to a process for preparing said compounds, to the use of 2-(2,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)acetaldehyde or a specific derivative thereof or of mixtures of said compounds or of a stereoisomer thereof or of a mixture of two or more stereoisomers thereof as aroma chemicals; to the use of 2-(2,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)acetaldehyde or a specific derivative thereof for modifying the scent character of a fragranced composition; to compositions containing 2-(2,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)acetaldehyde or a specific derivative thereof or a mixture of said compounds or a stereoisomer thereof or a mixture of two or more stereoisomers thereof; and to a method of preparing a fragranced composition or for modifying the scent character of a fragranced composition, comprising incorporating 2-(2,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)-acetaldehyde or a specific derivative thereof or a mixture of said compounds or a stereoisomer thereof or a mixture of two or more stereoisomers thereof into said composition.
Abstract:
The presently claimed invention is directed to the use of 1-alkoxyethyl-4-isobutyl-benzene of formula (I) to impart an aroma impression to a composition. The presently claimed invention also relates to a method of imparting such aroma impression. The present invention is further directed to compositions comprising the compound of formula (I) and at least one aroma chemical as well as to compositions comprising the compound of formula (I) and at least one further component selected from the group consisting of aroma chemicals, surfactants, oil components, anti-oxidants, deodorant-active agents and solvents. The present invention also relates to a compound of formula (I′).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for carbonylating allyl alcohols at low temperature, low pressure and/or low catalyst loading. In an alternative embodiment, an acylation product of the allyl alcohol is used for the carbonylation. The present invention likewise relates to the preparation of conversion products of these carbonylation products and specifically of (−)-ambrox.
Abstract:
