Usage

General Description

4-Methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ol is a chemical compound known for its usage in the fields of perfumery and flavourings due to its sweet, earthy, and woody odor. It can be naturally found in some varieties of whiskey and roasted barley, contributing to their unique taste and aroma. Its molecular formula is C6H12O2, indicating it includes carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. The compound belongs to the family of pyrans, which are heterocyclic compounds with a ring structure containing five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Despite its prevalence in various industries, prolonged exposure or significant quantities of 4-Methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ol can potentially result in eye irritation and skin sensitization, therefore its handling requires appropriate safety measures.
