Utilisation

Uses

Other comments :

Stability :

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

Uses in perfumery :

Used to bring creamy facets to reconstituted vanilla, coconut or gardenia.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Isomerism :

Delta-Undecalactone has an asymetric carbon. Nevertheless, we always use its racemic mixture in perfumery. Delta-Undecalactone is an isomer of C14 Aldehyde, which has one less carbon atom into its ring, but one more in its ramified carbon chain. The resulting odor changes from a metallic peach and coconut odor to a fruity peach odor

Synthesis precursor :

Delta-Undecalactone is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Natural availability :

Data not available.

Synthesis route :

Delta-Undecalactone can be synthesized by an oxidation reaction of 2-hexylcyclopentanone, using a peracid.
