Usage

Chemical Properties

8-CYCLOHEXADECANONE is a viscous, clear, colorless to slightly yellow liquid with an elegant, fine, erogenous musk odor with a unique, sweet, powdery nitro musk undertone and balsamic, tobacco-like shades. Due to its excellent stability and long-lasting properties, it is recommended for nearly all perfumery applications, especially for fine fragrances, personal care, and fabric care perfumes. (E/Z)-8-Cyclohexadecenone is manufactured by monoepoxidation of 1,9-cyclohexadecadiene and subsequent rearrangement of the epoxide to the ketone.The starting material, 1,9-cyclohexadecadiene, is obtained from two molecules of cyclooctene by a metathesis reaction.

PROCESS FOR PREPARING PURE CYCLODODECANONE

The present invention relates to a process for preparing at least one cyclic compound with Z cycles and 7 to 16 carbon atoms with a keto group, at least comprising the stages: (a1) oxidation of a composition (A), at least comprising one cyclic olefin with Z cycles and 7 to 16 carbon atoms and at least two C—C double bonds, by means of dinitrogen monoxide to give a composition (A1),(a2) separating off the at least one cyclic olefin with Z cycles and 7 to 16 carbon atoms with at least two C—C double bonds from the composition (A1) in order to obtain a composition (A2), and(b) distillative treatment of the composition (A2) from step (a2) in order to obtain a composition (B), comprising the at least one cyclic compound with Z cycles and 7 to 16 carbon atoms with a keto group andless than 1.0% by weight of the at least one compound with Z?1 cycles and 7 to 16 carbon atoms with at least one aldehyde group, where Z can be 1, 2, 3 or 4.
