CIS-4-CYCLOPENTADECEN-1-ONE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

CIS-4-CYCLOPENTADECEN-1-ONE is colorless to light yellow liquid, which may partly solidify. It has a strong animalic musk note resembling natural musk. It is recommended for giving boost and naturalness to compositions consisting of other musk ingredients. (Z)-4-Cyclopentadecen-1-one is produced by a stereoselective hydrogenation of 4-cyclopentadecyn-1-one, which is obtained by a multistep process starting from cyclododecanol. Key step is the Eschenmoser fragmentation of the intermediate dodecahydrocyclopentacyclododecen-1-one.
