introduction | 5-methyl -6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopyrazine is a kind of perfume synthesized by human butyl. it has the special aroma of baking and peanuts, and also has a little light aroma. its characteristic aroma is obvious and its thermal stability is good. it is used for flavoring of food after being compounded with many essence and spices. |
Preparation | There are few reports on the synthesis of 5-methyl -6, 7-dihydro-5H-cyclopyrazine, and there are three main ways of synthesis : benzene is used as solvent and oxygen is used as oxidant to synthesize the target product at low temperature; Manganese dioxide replaces oxygen as oxidant and reacts at room temperature; A method for reacting amino acids under high temperature and high pressure to synthesize target products. In this paper, methyl cyclopentenolone and ethylenediamine were used as raw materials, anhydrous ethanol instead of benzene as solvent, and manganese dioxide was used for oxidative dehydrogenation to synthesize 5-methyl -6, 7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentanopyrazine. |
