Campholinic aldehyde derivatives, process for their preparation and their use as perfuming ingredients

Described herein are compounds of the formula STR1 wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl radical and X stands for a --CHO, or a --CN group, are useful as perfuming ingredients for preparing perfuming compositions and a variety of perfumed articles, to which they impart sandalwood-type odor notes, together with marine, ozone type odor characters, such that said compositions and articles thus acquire a "transparent" connotation. The aldehydes of formula (I) are also useful as starting products for the preparation of the corresponding fragrant alcohols and nitriles.

(Quinolinyl and quinoxalinyloxy)phenoxy alkenols and their use as post emergent herbicides

Compounds of the class comprising (quinolinyl and quinoxalinyloxy)phenoxy) alkenols, e.g., 4-(4-((6-chloro-2-quinolinyl)oxy)phenoxy)-2-penten-1-ol; and a method of preparation, comprising reacting an appropriately substituted quinoline or quinoxaline, e.g., 2,6-dichloroquinoline, with a phenolic substituted pentenol, e.g., 4-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)-2-penten-1-ol, in the presence of a base and organic solvent under an inert atmosphere with or without heat, and then recovering the product. These compounds are useful as intermediates for preparing various known herbicidal compounds and are useful in their own right as post-emergent herbicides for controlling grassy weeds in the presence of corn plants.
