Uses

Other comments :

In comparision to other woody-ambergris notes also having a violet flower undernote, Iso E Super® is more reminiscent of Cedarwood Virginia EO than Vetiver Haiti EO, in the case of Kephalis®.

Stability :

Synthesis precursor :

Synthesis route :

Kephalis® is one of two compounds synthesized by a cyclodimerization reaction of mesityl oxide (or 4-methylpent-3-en-2-one), in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, by reaction with ethyl orthoformate. The other compound formed during this reaction has no olfactory interest.
