2,6-Dimethyl-5-heptenal Usage And Synthesis
- Chemical Properties2,6-Dimethyl-5-hepten-1-al was identified in
ginger. It is a yellow liquid with a powerful, green, cucumber-like, and melon
odor. It can be prepared by Darzens reaction of 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one with
ethyl chloroacetate. The intermediate glycidate is saponified and decarboxylated
to yield the title compound.
It is used in many fragrance types and is invaluable in the creation ofmelon and cucumber notes. - Chemical Properties2,6-Dimethyl-5-heptenal has a characteristic odor of melon and a corresponding taste.
- OccurrenceReported found in lemon and lime peel oil, sudachi (Citrus sudachi H. ex. Shirai) and ginger.
- PreparationBy condensation of isobutyric aldehyde with α-methylcrotonaldehyde, followed by par tial hydrogenation; also from methylheptenone through Darzen's reaction.
- Aroma threshold valuesDetection: 16 ppb
- Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 50 ppm: green, melon, watermelon-rind, cucumber, with a waxy, chemical and floral nuance.
- Trade nameMelonal (Givaudan), Melomor (Aromor).
- Safety Profileskin and eye irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
