Synthesis and olfactory properties of some thiazoles with bell pepper like odor

Synthesis and olfactory properties of some thiazoles with bell pepper like odor

1983

A:PS

Ten new cycloalkanethiazoles have been synthesized and their olfactory properties studied in relation to 4-butyl-5-propylthiazole. Only derivatives containing eight carbon atoms attached to the thiazole ring have the characteristic bell pepper oder. The study of olfactory thresholds has shown that such odor is most pronounced with 4-isopropyl-7-methylcyclohexathiazole; clear differences, both in ordor quality and in olfactory threshold, have been found between stereoisomers of the odorant.
