PHANTOLIDE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

PHANTOLIDE is a almost white crystalline mass melting at about 35℃ to a viscous almost colorless liquid. Soluble in Ethyl alcohol and perfume materials. Sweet-musky, somewhat animal and slightly sour-sweaty odor of great tenacity. Blends excellently with Ionones, Sandalwood oil, and many non-floral, high-boiling perfume materials. Tends to develop a sour note during prolonged storage in closed containers. Produces useful musky effects in perfumes at concentrations above 100. Concentrations higher than 4-5 % may cause perceptible misbalance in perfumes, unless the musk is accompanied by suitable blending materials of similar evaporation rate.

Uses

A component of Musk fragrances.

Application

PHANTOLIDE is a synthetic musk fragrance. It is prepared by Friedel–Crafts acetylation of 1,1,2,3,3,5-hexamethylindane, which can be obtained as a 70 : 30 mixture with 1,1,3,5-tetramethyl-3-ethylindane by reacting ??,p-dimethylstyrene with amylenes or 2-methyl-2-butanol in a mixture of acetic acid and concentrated sulfuric acid: The indane ketone is a musk fragrance that is stable in light and soaps. It is used in perfumes and cosmetics for its fixative properties as well as its fragrance.

Preparation

Produced from para-Cymene.
