Other names :
Pipol Salicylate ; Cis-3-hexenyl 2-hydroxybenzoate ; Cis-3-hexen-1-yl salicylate ; Cis-hex-3-enyl 2-hydroxybenzoate ; Leaf salicylate
Volatility :
Heart/Base
Uses in perfumery :
Cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is used for solar, ylang-ylang and tuberose notes and for fougere perfumes. Brings a green note to white flowers. Provides a good binding between top and bottom notes.
Natural availability :
Cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is present in a small amount in carnation absolute. Knowing that carnation offers only a very low extraction yields, natural cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is very little produced. The synthetic compound is more often used in perfumery.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Other comments :
Comparing it to other salicylates, cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is the greenest.
Price Range :
€€
Stability :
May form Salicylic acid through time.
Most of the time, the occurrence of a benzenic cycle in a molecule causes a coloration of this molecule through time

Synthesis route :
As for other Salicylates, cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is synthesized by an esterification reaction between salicylic acid and cis-3-hexenol. It is the use of cis-3-Hexenol which gives the molecule its characteristic green note of cut grass.
Synthesis precursor :
Cis-3-Hexenyl salicylate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Isomerism :
Trans-3-Hexenyl Salicylate, a diastereoisomer of cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate, exists but is very little used.
