Utilisation

Uses

Other comments :

In comparision to other lactones, Delta-Dodecalactone has even more an apricot facet than a peach facet. This is what makes its distinction.

Stability :

Lactones tend to polymerize through time, making them more viscous and leading to a phase shift in alcohol.

Uses in perfumery :

Delta-Dodecalactone can bring a very juicy and fatty effect to fruity accords as apricot and peach.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Isomerism :

Delta-Dodecalactone has one asymetric carbon. A mixture of its enantiomers is used for perfumery. Delta-Dodecalactone is a constitutional isomer of Gamma-Dodecalactone, having one carbon atom less in its cycle, and one more in its ramified carbon chain. The resulting smell is very peachy and fatty both for the isomer and Delta-Dodecalactone.

Synthesis precursor :

Delta-Dodecalactone is not used for the synthesis of another compound used in perfumery.

Natural availability :

Delta-Dodecalactone is a compound found in the odorous principle of apricot, coconut, butter and some cheeses. It does not exist under its natural form for perfumery.

Synthesis route :

Delta-Dodecalactone can be prepared by oxidation of 2-heptylcyclopentanone, using a peracide.
