Usage

General Description

2,6-Diethylpyrazine is a chemical compound with a strong, nutty, roasted, and savory odor. It is commonly used in the food and beverage industry as a flavoring agent to impart a roasted, nutty, or earthy flavor to products such as coffee, cocoa, and roasted nuts. It is also found in alcoholic beverages, baked goods, and dairy products. 2,6-Diethylpyrazine is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is considered safe for use in food and beverage products at low concentrations. It is synthesized through chemical reactions and is classified as a pyrazine compound, which is commonly used as a flavoring agent due to its potent odor and taste characteristics.

Discovery of a piperazine urea based compound as a potent, selective, orally bioavailable melanocortin subtype-4 receptor partial agonist

We report the discovery of piperazine urea based compound 1, a potent, selective, orally bioavailable melanocortin subtype-4 receptor partial agonist. Compound 1 shows anti-obesity efficacy without potentiating erectile activity in the rodent models.

Supersonic jet studies of alkyl-substituted pyrazines and pyridines. Minimum energy conformations and torsional motion

Conformational reference for methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and isoproply-substituted pyrazines and pyridines are determined by mass resolved excitation spectroscopy (MRES) and MOPAC 5/PM3 semiempirical calculations. The results of these studies suggest that the conformational behavior of alkyl-substituted pyrazines and pyridines is different from that of alkyl-subtituted benzenes. Based on the experimental and semiempirical theoretical results reported herein and published ab initio calculations, this difference can be attributed to a stabilizing interaction between an α-hydrogen atom of alkyl subsituted and the adjacent lone pair nonbonding electrons on the ring nitrogen atom.
