Chemistry & Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Kephalis® is used in woody, ambery, masculine fragrances, leather, suede, spicy and floral notes. Gives a leather and woody appearance from the head to the base.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Kephalis® is not available in its natural state.
Isomerism :
Kephalis® does not have any isomer used in perfumery.
Synthesis precursor :
Kephalis® is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Synthesis route :
Kephalis® is one of two compounds synthesized by a cyclodimerization reaction of mesityl oxide (or 4-methylpent-3-en-2-one), in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, by reaction with ethyl orthoformate. The other compound formed during this reaction has no olfactory interest.
Stability :
Unstable in acidic products, except fabric conditioners, and in very alkaline detergents.
Other comments :
In comparision to other woody-ambergris notes also having a violet flower undernote, Iso E Super® is more reminiscent of Cedarwood Virginia EO than Vetiver Haiti EO, in the case of Kephalis®.
