Applications · 4 items

Description4-Methy 1-5-thiazoleethanol has the characteristic disagreeable odor of thiazole compounds. It is somewhat pleasant and nut-like on extreme dilution. It may be prepared by reduction of ethyl- 4-methylthiazole-5-acetate using LiAlH4; by condensation of thioformamide with bromoacetopropanol or with y,y-dichloro-y,ydiacetodipropyl ether.

OccurrenceReported found in grilled and roasted beef, cognac, brandy, Finnish whiskey, cocoa, peanuts, beans and malt.

Uses5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazole has been used in the synthesis of novel thiazolium halogenide ionic liquids.

General Description4-Methyl-5-thiazoleethanol is a sulfur-containing heterocyclic flavor compound that is reported to occur in Comté cheese and Panax ginseng.

Preparation methods

PreparationIt is obtained from the reduction of 4-methyl thiazole 5-ethyl acetate reduction with lithium aluminum hydride.

Preparation5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazole is prepared by reduction of ethyl-4-methylthiazole-5-acetate using LiAlH4; by condensation of thioformamide with bromoacetopropanol or with γ, y-dichloro-γ,γ-diacetodipropyl ether
