Synthesis route :
Verdox® is synthesized from 2-tert-butylcyclohexanol (obtained from 2-tert-butylphenol by a catalytic hydrogenation) by an esterification reaction with acetic anhydride, catalysed by a strong concentrated acid such as sulfuric acid.
Synthesis precursor :
Verdox® is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Isomerism :
Verdox® is a mixture of isomers, of which the cis isomer is present in majority, representing 60 to 95% of the mixture. One of the positional isomers of Verdox® is Vertenex®, with a woodier smell.
Citronellyl acetate and Menthanyl acetate are constitutional isomers of Verdox®. Their smell is distinctly different, and although they also are fruity, they do not have a woody note.
