Utilisation

Chemistry & Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Trimofix® is used in woody notes and in male perfumes, to bring woody, ambery and dry power. It can be overdosed as it is sweeter than other woody-ambery materials.

Year of discovery :

1969

Natural availability :

Trimofix® is not reported as found in nature, and can thus not be extracted from any plant.

Isomerism :

Trimofix® has three double bonds. Their conformation does not matter for this compound. It is imposed during the synthesis and no isomer is favoured. Trimofix® also is a constitutional isomer of Vertofix®, having a distinctive cedarwood smell.

Synthesis precursor :

Trimofix® is not a precursor for the synthesis of another material used in perfumery.

Synthesis route :

Synthesis of Trimofix® can be done starting from its corresponding trimethylcyclododecatriene, thanks to an acetylation reaction using acetic anhydride, in the presence of boron trifluoride diethyl ether.

Stability :

Stable in perfumes and various functionnal bases.

Other comments :

In the woody-ambery family, Trimofix® has a distinctive very dry note of sawdust, as Karanal® and Cedramber®.
