1-methyl-4-prop-1-en-2-yl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol(CAS#22771-44-4)

Introduction

1-methyl-4-prop-1-en-2-yl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol is an organic compound. It has some of the following properties:1. Appearance: colorless liquid.6. Density: 0.935 g/cm³.7. Solubility: soluble in water and a variety of organic solvents.This compound is mainly used in chemical laboratories for organic synthesis reactions, such as as transition metal catalyst ligands or as precursors for certain organic synthesis. It can also be used as an ingredient in fragrances and flavors.A common method is synthesis by alkydation reaction. Cyclohexene and 1-propolefin were reacted under appropriate reaction conditions to obtain 1-methyl-4-propyl-1-en-2-yl-cyclohexene. The compound is then reacted with an alkaline catalyst, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, for an alkydation reaction to give 1-methyl-4-propyl-1-en-2-yl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol.Safety Information: This is an organic compound and it is necessary to follow general laboratory safety practices. It can be irritating to the eyes, skin, and respiratory system. Necessary personal protective measures should be taken when using such as wearing appropriate protective eyewear, gloves and respirators. In case of any accidents, you should seek medical attention immediately.

Application
P-Mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol (cis-p-Menthadienol, CAS 22771-44-4) is a natural monoterpenoid alcohol found in Artemisia species and various essential oils. It is a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid with a distinctive minty, terpenic aroma (FEMA 4411). As a GRAS flavoring agent approved by JECFA, it is widely used in the flavor and fragrance industry to impart fresh, cool, and herbaceous notes to beverages, confectionery, baked goods, oral care products, perfumes, and cosmetics. Beyond its sensory applications, this compound serves as a key pharmaceutical intermediate. Its most notable industrial application is as a critical building block in the synthesis of Dronabinol (synthetic Delta-9-THC), an FDA-approved drug for treating appetite loss and severe nausea. Ongoing research also highlights its potential antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
