Furaneol Usage And Synthesis
Description Furaneol is a very important aroma chemical and is a key flavoring compound found in many kinds of fruits. It can be chemically formed through different carbohydrates during the Mainlard reaction. It can also be synthesized by yeast, bacteria and plants and play some physiological effects. Study has shown that it can suppress the phosphorylation of cAMP response element binding protein, underlying its potential role as an effective inhibitor of hyperpigmentation. It also has the potential to become an effective antimicrobial agent for human beings.
Chemical Properties Furaneol is a constituent of pineapple and strawberry aroma and is also found in other foods. It forms colorless crystals (mp 77–79°C) with a relatively weak, nonspecific odor. Dilute solutions develop a pineapple, strawberrylike odor.
Chemical Properties white to light yellow crystal powde
Chemical Properties 4-Hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone has a fruity caramel or "burnt pineapple" aroma. May be synthesized from dimethyl- 3,4-dihyroxyfuran-2,5-dicarboxylate.
Chemical Properties Furaneol has a sweet, fruity, strawberry, hot sugar, fruity caramel or “burnt pineapple” aroma.
Occurrence Reported found in guava, grapes, pineapple, raspberry, strawberry fruit and jam, rye bread, Swiss cheese, boiled beef, beer, cocoa, coffee, tea, filberts, almonds, oatmeal, Arctic bramble, yellow passion fruit, mango, shoyu, fermented soy sauce, litchi, malt and Cape gooseberry.
Uses 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone is a component of meat essence composition. 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone is used in the flavor and perfume industry due to its sweet strawberry aroma.
