Properties of Vanillylacetone CAS 122-48-5

Ginger ketone, also known as ginger ketone and vanilla acetone, is a kind of food spice that can be formulated according to production needs according to the provisions of my country's "Sanitary Standards for the Use of Food Additives" (GB2760-1996). The chemical name is 4-(4-hydroxy- 3-methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone. Light yellow or light amber crystals (acetone, petroleum ether or ethyl ether-petroleum ether), which will become viscous liquid after a long time at room temperature. It has a strong ginger-like spicy pungent smell and a ginger-like spicy taste. It has a sweet, spicy, rich and thick floral aroma, and the fragrance lasts for a long time. The relative density is 1.138～1.139 (25℃), the melting point is 40～41℃Chemicalbook, the boiling point is 290℃ (102℃), and the refractive index is 1.544～1.545. It can be dissolved in 50% ethanol at a ratio of 1:1, slightly soluble in water and petroleum ether, and soluble in dilute alkali. Slowly evaporate in steam. When heated, the silver nitrate ammonia solution can be reduced; it turns green when it reacts with the alcohol solution of ferric chloride. It is isolated from the essential oil of ginger (Zingiberofficinale), and gingerone is the main component of ginger oil. It is made by hydrogenation after the condensation reaction of vanillin and acetone. Used as a sweetener and edible flavor for rich flavor flavors. The flavor of "leather" and "tobacco" can be produced in flavored products. It is not easy to change color.
