Definition
3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecenyl Acetate was made commercially available a few years ago by a company in the Vitamin industry. The ester could be a supporting fixative in floral bases, artificial flower absolutes, etc. It will introduce a delicate, fresh note useful in Muguet types, Ylang, Jasmin, Tuberose, Rose and many other florals. Still, its value is at times difficult to estimate, particularly when it is used in combination with powerful odorants.
Production Methods
3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecenyl Acetate is produced from Phytol and Acetic anhydride with a Pyridine-type catalyst.
Aroma threshold values
Low strength odor.
