Methylionone Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Made from dimethyl butadiene and isoprene. Hydrochlorination of dimethylbutadiene produces dimethylbutadiene hydroxide, and then telomerization reaction with isoprene to obtain methylgeranyl chloride. Methylgeranyl chloride reacts with urotropine to obtain 6-methylcitral, and then condenses pseudo-iris ketone with acetone in an alkaline medium, and then cyclizes to obtain iris-ketone. Methyl ionone is synthesized by a method similar to ionone, which is obtained by condensing citral or a mixture containing citral with methyl ethyl ketone to produce pseudoisomethyl ionone, which is then cyclized and isomerized simultaneously.

Uses

Perfumery, flavoring.
