Utilisation

Uses

Other comments :

Folione® is very close chemicaly and olfactively to Methyl Octine Carbonate. These two molecules are used for the same reasons, but Folione® can be used preferencially because it is less regulated by the IFRA.

Stability :

Can form Methyl Octynic Acid under the effect of heat.
Unstable in acidic products, except fabric conditioners, and in alkaline products, except soap.

Uses in perfumery :

Folione® is used in peach accords, to replace Methyl Octine Carbonate, and for violet leaf notes. Gives a green, cucumber and mushroom effect.

Year of discovery :

1903

Isomerism :

Folione® is a constitutional isomer of Octahydrocoumarin, even if these two ingredient do not have the same smell at all.

Synthesis precursor :

Folione® is not a precursor to the synthesis of any other molecule used in perfumery.

Natural availability :

Folione® is not found in nature.

Synthesis route :

Folione®, or Methyl 2-Octynoate, is synthesized by an esterification reaction involving oct-2-ynoic acid and methanol. This reaction is catalized by the presence of a strong concentrated acid as sulfuric acid.

Comments :

When used in the same fragrance compound within a specific QRA category, the sum total of Methyl heptine carbonate (MHC, CAS number 111-12-6) and Methyl octine carbonate (MOC, CAS number 111-80-8) contributions must not exceed the maximum permitted level for MHC. At the same time, the contribution from MOC should always respect the maximum levels permitted in the respective categories as listed in the Standard for MOC.
