Chemical Properties

beta-Damascenone is a constituent of Bulgarian rose oil, to the flavor of which it contributes an important role although it is only present at a concentration of 0.05%.
It is used in small quantities in flavor and perfume compositions to impart naturalness and brilliance.

Uses

A terpenic ketone; odorant in fruits, vegetables, honey, wine and beer

Definition

ChEBI: Beta-damascenone is a cyclic monoterpene ketone that is 2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexa-1,3-diene substituted at position 1 by a crotonoyl group. It has a role as a fragrance, a volatile oil component and a plant metabolite. It is an enone, an apo carotenoid monoterpenoid and a cyclic monoterpene ketone.
