| 5-Hydroxyoctanoic acid lactone Usage And Synthesis |
Description | May be synthesized from 5-hydroxyoctanoic acid by reduction
with NaBH4 in water; by microbiological reduction of the corresponding
keto acid; from 5-hydroxyoctanoic methyl amide by
alkaline saponification, using Ba(OH)2. | Chemical Properties | Δ-Octalactone has a sweet, fatty, coconut, tropical, dairy odor. | Occurrence | Reported found as a volatile flavor component in coconut oil, butterfat, milk fat, the essence of the Blenheim
variety of apricot, and pineapple, yellow passion fruit, cranberry, currant buds, papaya, peach, raspberry, strawberry, bilberry, plum,
tomato, many cheeses, chicken fat, cooked beef, pork and mutton, rum, sherry, white wine, tea, coconut products, passion fruit,
mango, prickly pear, loquat, mountain papaya, nectarine, cape gooseberry and rooibus tea (Aspalathus linearis). | Uses | delta-Octanolactone is a important organic intermediate. It can be used in agrochemical, pharmaceutical and dyestuff field. | Preparation | From 5-hydroxyoctanoic acid by reduction with NaBH4 in water; by microbiological reduction of the corresponding keto
acid; from 5-hydroxyoctanoic methyl amide by alkaline saponification, using Ba(OH)2. | Definition | ChEBI: Delta-octanolide is a delta-lactone. | Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: coconut, sweet, creamy, lactonic and fruity with a milky and oily depth. | Safety Profile | Low toxicity by ingestion and skincontact. A skin irritant. When heated to decomposition itemits acrid smoke and irritating vapors. |
