6,7-Dihydro-5-methyl-5H-cyclopentapyrazin

Beschreibung5H-5-Methyl-6,7-dihydrocyclopenta(-b)pyrazine has an earthy, baked potato, peanut, roasted odor. It may be prepared from condensation of 2-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-cyclopentene-l-one and ethylene diamine; by condensing a cyclopentenolone with alkylenediamines, or alternatively, an aliphatic α-diketone with 1,2-diamino cyclopentane; the resulting product is dehydrogenated in the presence of palladium over activated charcoal or copper chromite.

OccurrenceReported found in peanuts, filberts, asparagus, potato wheat and rye bread, cooked beef, pork, pork liver, beer, cocoa, coffee, green tea, barley, filberts, almond, sesame seed, malt and wort

Verwenden5-Methyl-6,7-dihydrocyclopentapyrazine can be used for drug storage packaging and antibacterial composition.
