A soft, green-leafy material with a fresh cut-grass and crushed foliage character, milder and more diffusive than free cis-3-hexenal. The acetal form releases the green note more slowly, giving a natural, dewy vegetal impression with subtle fruity nuances.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Colorless liquid.

Solubility

Insoluble in water (decomposes slowly), soluble in alcohol and oils.

Uses in perfumery

This Acetal, like the isomer described in the following monograph, is, in the author's opinion, of no more than academic interest.

Production

Produced by condensation of cis-3-Hexenal with cis-3-Hexenol, using a catalyst and dehydrating agent. The reaction is susceptible to produce a number of by-products.
