p-Mentha-8-thiol-3-one Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionP-Menthα-8-thiol-3-one has a black-currant flavor. May be prepared by reaction of pulegone or isopulegone with hydrogen sulfide excess and ethanolic potassium hydroxide.
Chemical Propertiesp-Mentha-8-thiol-3-one has a black currant flavor.
Chemical Propertiesclear yellow to dark yellow liquid
Chemical Propertiesp-Mentha-8-thiol-3-one is an essential odoriferous constituent of buchu leaf oil. The commercial product is synthesized from pulegone and is a liquid mixture of cis–trans-isomers with a typical blackcurrant odor. 8-Mercapto-p-menthan-3-one is prepared by reacting pulegone with hydrogen sulfide in the presence of a base (e.g., triethylamine). This powerful fragrance and flavor substance is used in perfume and aroma compositions.
OccurrenceReported found in buchu oil.
PreparationBy reaction of pulegone or isopulegone with hydrogen sulfide excess and ethanolic potassium hydroxide.
Aroma threshold valuesAroma characteristics at 0.001%: sweet, pungent, minty and piney, buchulike and catty, sulfurous, metal lic, thiomenthome-like, blackberry, blackcurrant and grape fruity, with an earthy background.
