2-Methoxypyrazine Usage And Synthesis
Description2-methoxypyrazine is a kind of pyrazine derivative. It emits a kernels and cocoa-like aroma. It is a commonly used daily, food flavoring agent. It has many kinds of flavoring derivatives such as 3-Isobutyl-2-methoxypyrazine, 3-sec-butyl-2-methoxypyrazine, 3-alkyl-2-methoxypyrazines and 3-isopropyl-2-methoxypyrazine. There derivatives could be found in wine and many kinds of fruits such as berry and grapes.

OccurrencePresent at ultra-trace levels in sauvignon blanc and cabernet sauvignon grapes and wine. Methoxypyrazine contributes a distinctive wine aroma, even at low parts per trillion levels. Also reported found in cooked beef, cocoa, malt and krill.
PreparationFrom 2-hydroxypyrazine by various routes.
Aroma threshold values700 ppb in water
Safety ProfileSkin and eye irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
