Utilisation

Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Dihydrocoumarin is not so used in perfumery, but widely used in aromas because Coumarin is not edible. Gives a base to fruity notes, gives a dried fruits note. Used in vanilla flavours, alternating with tonka bean and Peru balsam. Used in white chocolate notes to counterbalance acids.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Natural availability :

Dihydrocoumarin can be extracted in its natural state from several plants, including medicinal tea and Tarragon EO.

Isomerism :

Dihydrocoumarin does not have any isomer used in perfumery.

Synthesis precursor :

Dihydrocoumarin can mediate the synthesis of Hexahydrocoumarin or Octahydrocoumarin. The hydrogenation which allows to obtain these products must be made with the appropriate catalyst and conditions.

Synthesis route :

Dihydrocoumarin is synthesized from coumarin, by a Raney nickel catalysed hydrogenation reaction. On the other hand, Hexahydrocoumarin can be dehydrogenated during the vapor phase, with a palladium catalysis in order to obtain Dihydrocoumarin.

Annexe I :

Some regulated synthetic ingredients are found in nature and in certain proportions in natural ingredients. This presence in nature has to be taken into account when calculating limits of use recommended by the IFRA. In case you do not know these concentrations, you can use the ones estimated by the IFRA. Here they are :
