DamascenoneDORICENONE (trade mark applied for by Firmenich & Cie, Geneva). an odoriferous ketone isolated in minute amounts from Bulgarian rose oil (Rosa damascena Mill.) is shown to be trans-2,6,6-trimethyl-1-crotonoyl-cyclohexa-1, 3-diene (I). A synthesis starting from beta;-cyclocitral is described for this conspicuous constituent of rose oil, which displays a powerful fragrance. The synthesis of four related, more saturated ketones, damasconesDORINONE (trade mark applied for by Firmenich & Cie, Geneva)., is also described.
