Alkyl-substituted tetrahydropyran and pentanediol derivatives: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Inconsistent olfactory profiles in fragrance formulations lead to high batch rejection rates. These innovations engineer specific ester and ketone molecular structures to ensure precise aroma stability and reproducibility.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Alkyl-substituted tetrahydropyran and pentanediol derivatives?

Inadequate olfactory profile stability

(24)evidences

Existing aroma chemicals lack the specific structural variations required to produce unique or stable scent profiles. Expanding the chemical library of esters and ethers overcomes sensory performance bottlenecks in fragrance formulation.

Unpleasant chemical odor profiles

(19)evidences

Natural aroma compounds often suffer from rapid degradation or inconsistent scent profiles over time. Developing stable synthetic derivatives ensures consistent sensory performance in commercial applications.
