OccurrenceReported to be found during the dry distillation of wood and in the corresponding tar oil. It has also been identified in fenugreek (FenaroWs Handbook of Flavor Ingredients, 1975).

UsesMethyl Cyclopentenolone is a flavoring agent that is a white crys- talline powder. it has a nutty odor suggesting a maple-licorice aroma when diluted. it is soluble in alcohol and propylene glycol, slightly soluble in most fixed oils, and sparingly soluble in water. it is obtained by synthesis. it is also termed 3-methyl-cyclopentane-1,2-dione.

UsesMethyl cyclopentenolone may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in commercial products using different chromatography techniques.

General DescriptionMethyl cyclopentenolone is one of the flavor compounds of maple syrup, coffee oil and wood smoke. It is reported to be one the key aroma compounds in Wasanbon sugar, contributing to the maple-like flavor. Methyl cyclopentenolone is also one of the major volatile compound formed during the thermal degradation of glucose.

Preparation methods

PreparationBy ketonic hydrolysis of the corresponding dicarboxylic ester (Arctander, 1969)
