Sotolone

Description:

Sotolone, also known as 3-hydroxy-2-butanone or 3-hydroxy-2-pentanone, is an organic compound characterized by its distinctive sweet and caramel-like aroma. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in water, alcohol, and ether, which enhances its utility in various applications. Sotolone is primarily recognized for its role as a flavoring agent and fragrance in the food and cosmetic industries, contributing to the sensory profile of products. Chemically, it features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a ketone functional group, which are responsible for its reactivity and interactions with other compounds. Sotolone is also of interest in the field of research for its potential biological activities, including antimicrobial properties. Its stability under various conditions makes it a valuable compound in both industrial and laboratory settings. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted to ensure proper handling and usage.
