Beschreibung
6-Methyl-5-hepten-2-one has a strong, fatty, green, citrus-like
odor, and a bittersweet taste reminiscent of pear. May be prepared
from oil of lemongrass or from citral by refluxing for 12 hours in
aqueous solution containing K2C 03, and subsequent distillation
and vacuum fractionation; from acetoacetic ester and methylbuten-3-ol-2 with aluminum alcoholate in Carroll’s reaction followed by pyrolysis of the ester.
Chemische Eigenschaften
6-Methyl-5-hepten-2-one is an important intermediate in the synthesis of terpenoids.
Its odor properties are not impressive. It occurs in nature as a degradation
product of terpenes. (Z)- and (E)-Tagetone, [3588-18-9], [6752-80-3], are major
components of tagetes oil. Solanone [1937-54-8] and pseudoionone
[141-10-6] are acyclicC13 ketoneswith a terpenoid skeleton. Solanone is one of the
flavor-determining constituents of tobacco, and pseudoionone is an intermediate
in the synthesis of ionones.
Occurrence
Originally identified in lemongrass; it has been reported found in the essential oils of palmarosa, lemon, citronella, vervain, geranium, Ocimum canum, Artemisia scoparia, Urtica dioica and others. Also reported found in apple, apricot, sweet
and sour cherry, orange juice, citrus peel oils, bilberry, lingonberry, cranberry, guava, grapes, melon, peach, pear, raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, carrot, celery, tomato, potato, clove bud and leaf, ginger, peppermint oil, thymus, Gruyere cheese, butter, beef, hop
oil, beer, cognac, cider, white wine, cocoa, tea, peanut oil, avocado, Arctic bramble, cloudberry, olive, passion fruit, plumcot, rose
apple, marjoram, starfruit, mango, fig, rice, rice bran, quince, origanum, calamus, buckwheat, corn oil, wort, dried bonito, elderberry,

oil and mastic gum leaf oil, lime oil and apple brandy
Verwenden
Organic synthesis, inexpensive perfumes, fla-voring.
