Abstract: Compounds of the formula: ##STR1## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2 represent H or methyl and R.sup.3, R.sup.4 represent H, C.sub.1-4 alkyl or C.sub.2-4 alkenyl; R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together can also be butylidene are interesting camphor derivatives. They exhibit valuable odor characteristics.
Abstract: Novel odorant compositions which are characterized by a content of one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of tetrahydrofurans of structures 1 or 2, or tetrahydropyrans of structure 3. ##STR1## wherein R can be an acyclic, where acyclic refers to a chain of at least four carbon atoms substituted with at least three methyl groups in the chain, carbocyclic, where carbocyclic refers to a ring of 5-8 carbon atoms, and with at least two methyl groups on the ring, or bicyclic where bicyclic refers to two carbon tings, each ring having between 5-8 carbon atoms fused together, substituted with at least two methyl groups, and where R.sub.1 =CH.sub.3, or higher alkyl group, R.sub.2 =H, CH.sub.3, or higher alkyl group, R.sub.3 =H, or CH.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 =H, CH.sub.3, or higher alkyl group.
Abstract: The use of novel compositions for preserving aqueous systems normally subject to spoilage is disclosed. The compositions incorporate an antimicrobial agent into an inert and biodegradable carrier. The resulting compositions are stable, active, non-toxic, non-corrosive, biodegradable, compatible with ecosystems while having a flash point above 200.degree. F. and a pleasant odor.
Abstract: The invention is concerned with the 7R/7S-diastereoisomer mixture of the formula ##STR1## in pure form, essentially free of the corresponding (4R)-isomers. The invention also concerns the 2R/2S-diastereoisomer mixture of the formula ##STR2## in pure form which is useful as an intermediate for producing I. In addition, the invention concerns a process for obtaining I by subjecting II to isochromane ring closure. Odorant compositions containing I and the use of I as an odorant are also described.
