1-Phenyl-1-propanol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless liquid

Chemical Properties

1-Phenyl-1-propanal has a balsamic, floral fragrance and a sweet, honey-like taste.

Occurrence

Reported found in Bantu beer.

Uses

As heat transfer medium; in perfumery.

Preparation

By hydrogenation of phenethyl ketone.

Definition

ChEBI: Phenylpropanol is an organic molecular entity.

Production Methods

1-Phenyl-1-propanol is very rarely used in perfumes, but could find some application as a modifier for Phenylpropylalcohol in Hyacinth, Rose, Lilac, Magnolia, etc.
It finds some use in flavor compositions, almost exclusively in imitation Honey and in various fruit complexes. The concentration used is normally as low as 0.5 to 2 ppm in the finished product.

General Description

1-Phenyl-1-propanol enantiomers (E-PP) forms the inclusion complexes of cyclic decapeptide (CDP) which were studied using the density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP method. It was also used to determine the mass transfer kinetics effect on the elution profiles of the 1-phenyl-1-propanol (PP) enantiomers on Chiracel OB (cellulose tribenzoate coated on silica gel).
