7-Methyl-2H-1,5-benzodioxepin-3(4H)-one has shown gender-specific reduction in overall olfactory impact of stress-related odor by cross adaptation in human apocrine secretion.
Watermelon Ketone, also known as calone or methylbenodioxepinone is a hydrocarbon compound with similar structure of certain alicyclic C11-hydrocarbons such as ectocarpene. It is a flavor and fragrance chemical compound with special odorant. It was used as a scent component since the 1980s for its watery, fresh, ozone accords. It was later supplemented into several perfumes of the marine trend, beginning in the 1990s.
Watermelon Ketone is a white powder with a fresh marine odor, mp 35–41°C.
It is used to create fresh aquatic marine notes in perfume oils for many applications,
for example, for fine fragrances, soaps, and shower gels.
7-Methyl-2H-1,5-benzodioxepin-3(4H)-one has shown gender-specific reduction in overall olfactory impact of stress-related odor by cross adaptation in human apocrine secretion.
The material is prepared by etherification of 4-methylpyrocatechol with two
equivalents of alkyl 2-bromoacetate and subsequentDieckmann condensation followed
by hydrolysis and decarboxylation.
