(+)-Dihydrocarvone Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Chemical Properties
p-Menth-8-en-2-one has an herbaceous, spearmint-like odor.
Occurrence
Reported present in oregano oil, celery, spearmint oil, scotch spearmint oil, thymus, dill herb and seed and caraway seed.
Uses
The dual, herbal-minty quality of this compound will add an interesting twist to mint flavors as well as to celery, caraway, dill and herbal flavors, especially intended for cough drops and oral care products. At very low levels, it will add depth to tropical flavors like lychee, guava, passion fruit and rambutan.
Uses
The N-functionalization of dihydrocarvone forms imine derivatives, which are synthons for preparing N-heterocycles.
Preparation
The production of cis-Dihydrocarvone: 1) by Isomerization of Limonene oxide. 2) from Dihydrocarveol by oxidation - or 3) from Carvone by reduction.
Definition
ChEBI: A dihydrocarvone resulting from reduction of the endocyclic cyclohexene double bond.
Aroma threshold values
Detection: 820 ppb to 1.06 ppm
Synthesis Reference(s)
