Abstract:
A compound of formula I wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 can be independently selected from H or Me, n=0, 1, the dotted lines are indicating single bonds, or in case n=0 an isolated double bond at position 3′, or in case n=1 an isolated double bond at position 3′ or 4′, and the wavy bond is indicating an unspecified configuration of the adjacent double bond. Said compounds, as well as precursors capable to generate said compounds, are useful as fragrance ingredients.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of formyl cyclohexene derivatives which are suitable as odorants as such or as intermediates for the preparation of further odorants. In particular the present invention relates to a domino-methylenation-Diels-Alder reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes using formaldehyde in the presence of 1,3-butadienes.
Abstract:
Compounds of formula (I) wherein R is hydrogen and the bond between C-2 and C-3 together with the dotted line represents a double bond, or R is —CH2— and together with C-2 and C-3 represents a cyclopropane ring and the bond between C-2 and C-3 together with the dotted line represents a single bond, having floral rosy odor notes, their use as fragrance and perfumed products comprising them.
Abstract:
A process for producing rotundone from α-guaiene, in particular by oxidation of the C(3) position, wherein the α-guaiene is produced from a precursor by a sesquiterpene synthase. The sesquiterpene synthase is produced in a microorganism.
Abstract:
The regio-selective functionalization of a dialkyl benzene compound wherein the ratio of the compound functionalized at position (a) to the compound functionalized at the position (b) is at least 70:30, more particularly at least 80:20, still more particularly at least 85:15, and still more particularly at least 90:10, characterised in that the substituent R is an isobutyl group.
Abstract:
A compound of formula I wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 can be independently selected from H or Me, n=0, 1, the dotted lines are indicating single bonds, or in case n=0 an isolated double bond at position 3′, or in case n=1 an isolated double bond at position 3′ or 4′, and the wavy bond is indicating an unspecified configuration of the adjacent double bond. Said compounds, as well as precursors capable to generate said compounds, are useful as fragrance ingredients.
Abstract:
Compounds according to formula I in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof
wherein is indicating a single bond or a double bond, and the compound has overall one carbon-carbon double bond or no carbon-carbon double bond at all, and their use as flavor or fragrance ingredient.
Abstract:
A compound represented by the formula I wherein is indicating a double bond either at C4 or at C5, or single bonds, R1, R2, R3, R4 are independently selected from H or Me, and R5, R6 are independently selected from Me or Et, and wherein the compound is not 9-hydroxy-5,9-dimethyldec-4-enal or 9-hydroxy-5,9-dimethyldecanal. Said compounds are useful as perfume ingredients in personal care and household care products.
Abstract:
A method of forming a macrocyclic musk compound comprising the steps of:— i) cross-metathesizing a first olefin and a second olefin in the presence of a homogeneous transition metal catalyst comprising an alkylidene ligand, to form a statistical mixture of a hetero-dimer intermediate of said first and second terminal olefin, and homo-dimers ii) separating the hetero-dimer from the statistical mixture of hetero- and homo-dimers iii) and cyclizing the hetero-dimer intermediate to form the macrocyclic musk compound.
