5-Chloro-5-methylhex-1-ene

CAS: 116911-84-3

5-Chloro-5-methylhex-1-ene is an odorant that has been used as a probe for olfactory receptors. 5-Chloro-5-methylhex-1-ene activates a g protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and is able to bind to the odorant binding site of the GPCR. The spatial arrangement of the methyl groups on the cyclopentane ring are important in determining which GPCRs it can bind to. 5CMH has been synthesized in a chiral fashion, with enantiomers having different odors. This compound is an enantioselective agonist for some GPCRs, but not others. It also exists as two enantiomers, differing only by the orientation of one chiral center.
