L-MENTHONE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to pale yellow liquid

Uses

L-Menthone is used in perfumery and cosmetics for its characteristic aromatic and minty odor. And it is also used in synthesis of agrochemicals, and dyestuff.

Definition

ChEBI: (-)-menthone is a menthone that is cyclohexanone substituted by a methyl and an isopropyl group at positions 5 and 2 respectively (the 2S,5R-stereoisomer). It is an enantiomer of a (+)-menthone.

General Description

(-)-Menthone is a monoterpenoid compound found in the essential oil extracted from the maturing peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) leaves.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Taste at 50 ppm

Synthesis

1) Preparation of the chiral catalyst [RuCl?(S)-XylBINAP(S)-DAIPEN].
2) Selective hydrogenation: D-Pulegone is hydrogenated at 70??C under 100 atm H? pressure for 23 h in the presence of the catalyst. After removing solvents, levomenthol is obtained by distillation under reduced pressure.
