Utilisation

Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Silvial® is usually used to replace regulated aldehydes as Lilial® or Lyral® in lily of the valley accords for example. It brings a powerful and fresh note, with a floral identity.

Year of discovery :

Patent N°1.430.164 (FR) published on Nov.13, 1964 by Rhône-Poulenc company

Natural availability :

Sylvial® is not found in nature. Thus, it is not extracted from any plant.

Isomerism :

Silvial® has one asymmetric carbon. Nevertheless, a mixture of these two molecules is used in perfumes. Also, ortho and meta isomers of Silvial® are not used in perfumery. Eventually, Lilial® is a positional isomer of Silvial®. Its smell is fresher and fruitier, and less aqueous.

Synthesis precursor :

Reacting with Methyl Anthranilate, Silvial® can help synthesizing its Schiff base, although it is very poorly used.

Synthesis route :

As it has a structure close to Lilial® and Cyclamen Aldehyde®, the synthesis of Silvial® can be made in two different ways. The first one consists in a condensation of two aldehydes : 4-isobutylbenzaldehyde and Acetaldehyde, using an excess of the first reagent, and adding the second one slowly, to prevent autocondensation of Acetaldehyde. Then, a catalytic hydrogenation of the obtained product leads to Silvial®. The second synthetic route is a Friedel and Craft reaction involving isobutylbenzene and Methacrolein diacetate, followed by subsequent acidic hydrolysis of the intermediary product.
