PRO-FRAGRANCE COMPOUNDS

A compound of Formula (I) wherein R1 represents a C3 to C20 hydrocarbon group derived from a fragrant alcohol of formula R1OH or from a fragrant aryl aldehyde or ketone of Formula (II), wherein: R2 is, independently, hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, acetoxy group, -O(C=O)CH(CH3), optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl group or C1-C6 alkoxy group, wherein any two of R2 may form an optionally substituted 5 or 6 membered ring, and R1 represents a radical derived from a fragrant alcohol of formula R1OH or from a fragrant aldehyde or from a fragrant aryl aldehyde or ketone of formula (II). The compounds are useful for example as a precursor for the prolonged delivery or release of fragrant compounds such as fragrant alcohols or aldehydes.

Serine carbonates

Serine carbonates of formula I are precursors for organoleptic compounds, masking agents and antimicrobial agents. Further they are alternative substrates for malodor producing enzymes. The symbols in formula I are defined in claim 1.

Compounds having protected hydroxy groups

The present invention relates to compounds with protected hydroxy groups of formula (I) These compounds are precursors for organoleptic agents, such as fragrances, and masking agents and for antimicrobial agents. When activated, the compounds of formula (I) are cleaved and form one or more organoleptic and/or antimicrobial compounds.

Beta-ketoester compounds

The beta-ketoesters of formula I are useful as precursors for organoleptic compounds, especially for flavors, fragrances and masking agents and antimicrobial compounds.

Ketone precursors for organoleptic compounds

The invention discloses ketones of formula I: wherein, Y is an optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, or cycloalkylalkyl, wherein each alkyl group is straight or branched and each alkyl and cycloalkyl group is saturated or unsaturated; R1is hydrogen or a C1-6alkyl group that is substituted, saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched; A is a chromophoric substituted aromatic ring or ring system; n is an integer; and with the proviso that formula I is not 2-ethoxy-1-phenyl-ethanone. These compositions are useful for the delivery of organoleptic compounds, especially of flavors, fragrances, masking agents and antimicrobial compounds.
