  • 1-tert-Butylcyclohexanecarboxamide and uses thereof as cooling compounds
    Publication number: 20110070171
    Abstract: Described is a new cooling agent represented by Formula I and compositions with known coolers having cooling properties and the application of Formula I in foodstuffs and chewing gum: wherein X, Y is independently selected from a C1-C4 straight or branched alkyl or H atom; and R1 is selected from a linear or branched alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxyalkyl containing from 1 to 6 carbons or group (CH2)n-Z, where n is 0 to 6 and Z is a group with non-bonding electrons. Useful groups with non-bonding electrons are halogens, OH, OMe, OEt, NO2, CN, Ac, SO2NH2, CHO, CO2H, CONH2, CONHR2, where R2 is selected from C1-C4, and C1-C4 alkyl carboxylates such as CO2Me or CO2Et.
