What is 2-METHYLISOBORNEOL?
The Uses of 2-METHYLISOBORNEOL
2-Methylisoborneol can be used as a reactant:
- To prepare N-[(1R,2R,4R)-1,4,7,7-tetramethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]acetamide by reacting with acetonitrile in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate.
- In the enantioselective total synthesis of geissoschizine as well as geissoschizol.
What are the applications of Application
2-Methylisoborneol solution is a fungal metabolite with a strong earthy odor
Definition
ChEBI: An bornane monoterpenoid comprising isoborneol carrying a 2-methyl substituent (the 1R,2R,4R-diastereomer).
General Description
2-Methylisoborneol (2-MIB) is a semi-volatile compound, responsible for the undesirable earthy-musty odor in surface water. It can be efficiently degraded by TiO2 photocatalysis. 2-MIB can also be easily adsorbed on granular activated carbon.
