6,10-Dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one Usage And Synthesis
Chemical PropertiesGeranylacetone occurs in (5Z)-trans as well as in (5E)-trans form and has been identified in fruits and in essential oils. It is a colorless liquid with a fresh, green, slightly penetrating, rose-like odor. Geranylacetone is an intermediate in the synthesis of other fragrance substances. It is mainly produced from linalool. Another route starts from myrcene, to which methyl acetoacetate is added under rhodium catalysis; geranylacetone is subsequently obtained after saponification and decarboxylation. It is used in perfumery in rose compositions, for example, in soap perfumes.
Chemical Properties6,10-Dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one has a green and rosy floral odor and fresh-floral, light, but rather penetrating sweet-rosy, slightly green, magnolia-like odor. It blends well in lavender and fruity notes, where it imparts a clean and natural character. It helps to round out floral bouquets
OccurrenceReported found in oil of citronella, yellow passion fruit, peppermint, Scotch spearmint oil, Japanese seafood, scallop, tomato, tomato paste, citrus peel oils, carrots, papaya, melon, Parmesan cheese, milk powder, cognac, tea, starfruit, figs, mango, red sage, nectarines, clams, pork, anise, and hyssop
UsesIt is used as a flavoring agent and adjuvant. It is also employed as a substance, extract, or preparation for diffusing or imparting an agreeable or attractive smell.
PreparationBy reaction of linalool and ethyl acetoacetate with an alkaline catalyst and subsequent rearrangement and decarboxylation.
ApplicationGeranylacetone is an intermediate in nerolidol synthesis. It is used in perfumery in rose compositions, for example, in soap perfumes.
Aroma threshold valuesDetection: 60 ppb to 6.4 ppm
Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 12 ppm: floral, fruity, fatty, green, pear, apple and banana nuances
General Description6,10-Dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one is one of the key volatile flavor compounds of tomato and certain species of mushroom.
Safety ProfileA skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
