| Ethyl furaneol Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless to light yellow liqui |
| Chemical Properties | 2-Ethyl-4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone has been identified in, for example, coffee and melon. The tautomer mixture is a clear slightly yellowish liquid, bp0.02 kPa 82–83°C, d204 1.137, n20D 1.511 with sweet, caramel, fruity, bread-like odor. |
| Chemical Properties | 2-Ethyl-4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone has a sweet, fruity, caramel, butterscotch odor. |
| Occurrence | Reported found in soy sauce, Swiss cheese and melon, coffee, shoyu, strawberry and pineapple. |
| Preparation | One commercially applied synthesis is the condensation of 2-pentene nitrile with ethyl lactate followed by oxidation of the intermediate 4-cyano-5-ethyl-2-methyldihydro-3(2H)-furanone with monoperoxysulfate. |
| Aroma threshold values | Detection: 20 ppb |
| Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 20 ppm: burnt, caramellic, sweet and fruity |
