Liu, Yuping published the artcileSynthesis and odor evaluation of five new sulfur-containing ester flavor compounds from 4-ethyloctanoic acid, Category: tetrahydrofurans, the publication is Molecules (2010), 5104-5111, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
Five sulfur-containing flavor compounds were designed. and the synthesis of the target compounds was achieved using 4-ethyloctanoyl chloride and thiols and alcs. as starting materials. The products thus obtained [i.e., 4-ethyloctanoic acid 3-(methylthio)propyl ester, 4-ethyloctanethioic acid S-(2-furanylmethyl) ester, 4-ethyloctanethioic acid S-(2-methyl-3-furanyl) ester, 4-ethyloctanoic acid 2-(4-methyl-5-thiazolyl)ethyl ester, 4-ethyloctanethioic acid S-(tetrahydro-2-methyl-3-furanyl) ester] are synthetic sulfur-containing ester flavor compounds which all possess a meaty odor and might be used in foods if approved for this purpose.
Molecules published new progress about 57124-87-5. 57124-87-5 belongs to tetrahydrofurans, auxiliary class Tetrahydrofuran,Thiol, name is 2-Methyl-3-tetrahydrofuranthiol, and the molecular formula is C5H10OS, Category: tetrahydrofurans.
