Synthesis route :

Grisalva® is a mixture of four molecules, two of which are isomers. These molecules result from the reaction between prop-2-yn-1-ol and 1-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohex-2-enyl)pentan-3-one, which is structurally very close to DihydroBeta-Ionone.

Synthesis precursor :

Grisalva® is not a precursor for the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Isomerism :

Both isomers of Grisalva® are enantiomers. They are not used separately in perfumery. The two other molecules that make up Grisalva® are very close in structure: one has a double bond on its 6-carbon cycle, while the other has none.

Natural availability :

Grisalva® is exclusively resulting from a synthesis, an does not exist on its natural state.

Allergens :

This ingredient does not contain any allergen.

Uses in perfumery :

Used in low quantity (for cost reasons) in woody and ambery notes, in order to reproduce ambergris smell with great quality.

Other names :

Amber furan, 3a-ethyl dodecahydro-6,6,9a-trimethyl naphto(2,1-b)furan, ethyl dodecahydrotrimethyl naphtofuran, trimethyl-2-cyclohexenyl-3-pentanone-2-propynol

Other comments :

Grisalva® takes its name from ambergris, a spermwhale rejection formerly used for perfumery.
