| Description | 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-one, also known as fema 3373 or tetrahydro-2-methyl-3-furanone, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furanones. Furanones are compounds containing a furan ring bearing a ketone group. 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-one is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-one is a sweet, bread, and buttery tasting compound. Outside of the human body,. Coffee furanone is less odorous than furfuryl mercaptan, which with an odor threshold of 0.005 Ppb was the first high impact aroma chemical, but has a very pleasant sweet caramel character, with some nuttiness. Coffee furanone (2-methyltetrahydrofuran-3-one) is a pleasant smelling liquid furan derivative which is a volatile constituent of the aroma complex of roasted coffee. The synthetic version of this natural flavorant and odorant is used in a variety of food and beverage applications, including coffee, nuts, cocoa, brandy, meat sauces and as a general food flavorant at a typical dosage (about 5-20 ppm), similar to the natural concentration (30 ppm) of coffee furanone in roasted coffee. Coffee furanone has also been prepared via the condensation of ethyl lactate and methyl acrylate in DMSO solution and (under phase transfer conditions) in ionic liquids. Further approaches to the synthesis of coffee furanone involved the hydrolysis of the corresponding dithioketals and the oxidation of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran employing lithium hypochlorite in the presence of ruthenium catalysts. This compound has also been prepared in acceptable yield via oxidative hydroxylation of the 2-acetylbutyrolactone. Coffee furnone was synthesized in 1963 by Wynberg via acid-catalyzed ring closure of β-alkoxy diazoketones. coffee furanone is found in Aloe africana. A related lactic acid synthesis was described as having the advantages of a simple process, high conversion rate, low pollution, and low cost. |
