Chemistry & Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol is used in all types of perfumes, for reconstitutions of lilac, hyacinth, lily of the valley and jasmine. Useful in marine notes for a light and green effect.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol is not available in its natural state.
Isomerism :
L-Carvone and Thymol are isomers of Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol. Their smell is nevertheless very different: more minty for one and more aromatic for the other.
Synthesis precursor :
Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol serves as a reagent in the synthesis of Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinyl acetate, and other esters that can be synthesized from this alcohol.
Synthesis route :
Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol (DMBC) is synthesized by a Grignard reaction using benzylmagnesium chloride reacting with acetone.
Stability :
May crystalize through time
Most of the time, the occurrence of a benzenic cycle in a molecule causes a coloration of this molecule through time
Other comments :
Comparing it with Dihydromyrcenol and Dimetol®, Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol has a greener note.
