Branched chain alkenyl methyl carbonates, uses thereof in augmenting or enhancing the aroma of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles and formate intermediates useful in preparing same

摘要

Described are branched chain alkenyl methyl carbonates and branched chain alkenyl formates defined according to the structure: <IMAGE> wherein R3 represents hydrogen or methoxy and wherein in each of the molecules described by the structure, one of the dashed lines is a carbon-carbon double bond and each of the other of the dashed lines is a carbon-carbon single bond; and uses of the compounds wherein R3 is methoxy in augmenting or enhancing the aroma of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles such as solid or liquid anionic, cationic, nonionic or zwitterionic detergents, fabric softener compositions, fabric softener articles, hair sprays, shampoos, bath oils and plastic fragrances.
