What is 3,5,5-TRIMETHYLHEXANAL?
Chemical properties
3,5,5-Trimethylhexanal has an aldehydic odor.
The Uses of 3,5,5-TRIMETHYLHEXANAL
3,5,5-Trimethylhexanal was used in preparation of gem-dithiols via reaction with hydrogen sulfide.
The Uses of 3,5,5-TRIMETHYLHEXANAL
3,5,5-Trimethylhexanal has been suggested for use in perfume compositions as a very powerful masking agent. In extreme dilution, its odor is generally considered pleasant, but the opinion is not unanimous. It has found extensive use as the main active ingredient in various types of masking odors, room fresheners, deodorizers, etc. It is relatively stable against oxidation and polymerization, but it will produce intensely yellow colored condensation products with Anthranilates, darker with Quinolines or Indoles. However, it is rarely used in connection with those materials, more often with alifatic aldehydes, Monoterpenes, Pine fragrance materials, etc.
Preparation
From diisobutylene via the oxo reaction.
Definition
