Usage

General Description

6,10-dimethylundecan-2-one, also known as citronellyl methyl ketone, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C13H26O. It is a ketone that is commonly used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, colognes, and other personal care products. It has a strong, sweet, and floral odor similar to that of citronella oil, and it is often used to add a fresh and citrusy scent to various products. Additionally, it is used in the manufacturing of flavors and in the production of insect repellents due to its similarity to the natural insect repellent properties of citronella. 6,10-dimethylundecan-2-one is considered a safe ingredient when used in small concentrations in consumer products.

PROCESS OF ASYMMETRIC HYDROGENATION OF KETALS AND ACETALS

The present invention relates to a process of the asymmetric hydrogenation of a ketal of an unsaturated ketone or an acetal of an unsaturated aldehyde by molecular hydrogen in the presence of at least one chiral iridium complex. This process yields chiral compounds in a very efficient way and is very advantageous in that the amount of iridium complex can be remarkably reduced.

Cyclization of N,N-diethylgeranylamine N-oxide in one-pot operation: preparation of cyclic terpenoid-aroma chemicals

Acid promoted cyclization of the geranylamine N-oxide (E)-4 followed by base-catalyzed intramolecular aldol condensation afforded 1-acetyl-4,4-dimethyl-1-cyclohexene (7) in one-pot operation. Reduction of 7, which possess strong fruity odor, followed by lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution furnished the acetate (R)-26 (>49.9% yield, >99% ee) and the recovered alcohol (S)-25 (>49.9% yield, >99% ee, herbal odor).
