Menthoxypropanediol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

3-[(l)-Menthoxy]propane-1,2-diol is a liquid that gives a physiological cooling sensation on the skin and mucosa. It is used to create coolness and freshness to cosmetic and oral care preparations.
The synthesis of menthoxypropanediol starts with menthol. Subsequent etherification with an allyl halide and dihydroxylation yields the diol.

Uses

Menthoxypropane-1,2-diol, is a Cyclohexane derivative are disclosed in a variety of tech. products, household products, or in cosmetic and pharmaceutical compounds.?The substances are well tolerated and characterized by their good biodegradability.

Uses

Menthoxypropanediol is used to mask odor and leave the skin feeling refreshed, it is a synthetic menthol derivative.
