γ-Dodecalactone

Description:

γ-Dodecalactone, also known as lauric lactone, is a cyclic ester with the chemical formula C12H22O2. It is characterized by its pleasant, creamy, and coconut-like odor, making it a popular choice in the fragrance and flavor industry. This compound is a member of the lactone family, specifically a γ-lactone, which indicates that it is formed from the condensation of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol, resulting in a cyclic structure. γ-Dodecalactone is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. In addition to its applications in perfumery and food flavoring, γ-Dodecalactone is also studied for its potential use in various chemical syntheses and as a building block in organic chemistry. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.

γ-Dodecalactone

CAS: 2305-05-7

Gamma-dodecalactone is a naturally occurring fatty acid that exhibits antifungal and antitumor properties. The molecule is hydroxylated in vivo, forming an acid complex with the addition of water. This reaction produces a hydroxylate group, which increases the solubility of the compound. In vitro studies have shown that when gamma-dodecalactone is metabolized, it forms oxidation products such as nepeta cataria.
