Utilisation

Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Acetoin is used in buttery notes.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Natural availability :

Acetoin can be obtained following the fermentation of molasses, among other products.

Isomerism :

Acetoin has an asymmetric carbon. Its two enantiomers (R) and (S) have a similar smell. In perfumery, it is the racemic mixture of this molecule that is used. Ethyl acetate is a constitutional isomer of Acetoin. These two molecules, however, have a very different smell, as Ethyl acetate has a solvent smell and is more fruity.

Synthesis precursor :

Acetoin is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Synthesis route :

Acetoin is synthesized by a partial oxidation of 2,3-butanediol.
