| | METHYLCYCLOPENTENOLONE BUTYRATE Chemical Properties |
| solubility | Slightly soluble in water, soluble in Propylene glycol, alcohol and many oils. | | form | liquid | | color | Yellowish | | Odor | Powerful, creamy -caramellic, buttery odor of considerable tenacity | | Stability: | slightly burning at concentrations higher than 30 ppm |
| | METHYLCYCLOPENTENOLONE BUTYRATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Methyl cyclopentenolone butyrate has been used in flavor compositions, where a “Cyclotene” effect is desirable
in combination with a buttery-creamy effect,
particularly in imitation Butter, cream, Vanilla, and in Butterscotch, caramel, etc. It is not very stable, and any
amount of free Butyric acid is likely to ruin
the organoleptic picture of this material. | | Preparation | By esterification of Methyl cyclopentenolone with Butyric acid, preferably under
azeotropic conditions. |
