Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a fragrance composition comprising at least two fragrance precursor compounds selected from the group consisting of fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to light, fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to air / oxygen, fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to heat, fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to moisture, and fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to enzymes. The present invention further relates to a fragranced consumer product comprising the fragrance composition of the present invention, and to the use of the fragrance composition of the present invention to improve, enhance, impart and / or modify the fragrance impression and / or fragrance intensity of a consumer product.

[0002] Background technology The perfume industry is particularly interested in compositions or additives that can extend or improve the fragrance effect of at least one fragrance ingredient for a specific period of time. It is particularly desirable to obtain long-lasting properties for standard fragrance ingredients that are too volatile, have poor substantivity by themselves, or deposit only small amounts on the surface of the final application. Furthermore, some fragrance ingredients are unstable and need to be protected against slow decomposition before use. Long-lasting fragrances are desirable for various applications, such as delicate or functional perfumes or cosmetics. Fabric cleaning and softening is a special field where it is always necessary to ensure that the effect of active substances, especially perfumes or fragrance components, remains effective for a specific period of time after washing, softening, and drying. It is known that many active substances particularly suited to this type of application lack adhesion to laundry or do not remain on laundry during rinsing, resulting in only a temporary and not very strong fragrance effect. Given the importance of this type of application in the perfume industry, research in this field has been ongoing, particularly with the aim of finding new and more effective solutions to the problems mentioned above.

[0003] It has been surprisingly found that the fragrance composition according to the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and allows for efficient release of fragrance compounds (fragrance raw materials) from the fragrance precursor compounds contained in the fragrance composition. It has been particularly surprising to find that the combination of fragrance precursors results in a more efficient and prolonged release of fragrance compounds.

[0004] Summary of the Invention Olfaction is a complex and dynamic process, and controlling the release profile of volatile aroma compounds can maximize the impact of a fragrance formulation and enrich the sensory experience. The combination of perfume precursors in a fragrance composition, such as a fragrance composition according to the present invention, can add an additional dimension to the controlled and long-lasting release profile of highly volatile perfume raw materials (PRMs).

[0005] The present invention provides - fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds when exposed to light; - fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds upon exposure to air / oxygen; - fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds when exposed to heat; - perfume precursor compounds that release perfume compounds when exposed to moisture; - fragrance precursor compounds that release fragrance compounds when exposed to enzymes; The present invention relates to a fragrance composition comprising at least two fragrance precursor compounds selected from the group consisting of:

[0006] A "perfuming composition" should be understood to be, for example, a composition capable of imparting a hedonic effect to a consumer product. In other words, a composition that is considered to be a perfuming composition must be recognized by those skilled in the perfumery art as being capable of imparting or modifying the olfactory sensation in a positive or pleasant way, rather than merely imparting an odor.

[0007] According to the present invention, the perfuming composition comprises at least two perfume precursor compounds.

[0008] A "perfume precursor" or "pro-fragrance" is a compound that can release one, two, or more perfume compounds, also known as PRMs (perfume raw materials), upon external influence, in a manner that prolongs the perfume effect of the PRMs. The PRMs are released from the perfume precursor by breaking a covalent bond upon exposure to external triggers or stimuli such as light, air / oxygen, heat, moisture, or enzymes, or a combination thereof. Typically, the perfume precursor itself has low volatility and is ideally (almost) odorless. The perfume precursor may be advantageously characterized by a vapor pressure of less than 0.01 Pa, as calculated using the software EPIwin v.3.10 (2000, available from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency). According to one embodiment, the vapor pressure is less than 0.001 Pa. The perfume precursor may be advantageously characterized by a molecular weight of greater than 270, greater than 300, or greater than 350. "Perfume precursor" or "profragrance" has its usual meaning in the art, as reported, for example, in A. Herrmann, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., 2007, 46, 5836-5863.

[0009] In particular embodiments, the perfuming ingredients released by the perfume precursors used in the compositions of the present invention may modify or impart odor, and may provide additional benefits such as longevity, blooming, counteracting malodors, antibacterial effect, antiviral effect, microbial stability, pest control, etc.

[0010] An "aroma compound," "fragrance compound," or "perfume raw material (PRM)" is a compound used as an active ingredient in a perfume preparation or composition to impart a hedonic effect. In other words, a compound to be considered a perfuming ingredient must be recognized by those skilled in the perfumery art as not merely having an odor, but also as being able to impart or modify the odor of a composition in a positive or pleasant way.

[0011] Perfume compositions according to the present invention may include perfume precursor compounds that release PRMs upon exposure to light.

[0012] "Light" means any form of electromagnetic radiation and is not limited to any particular wavelength. Release of PRMs from such perfume precursors is typically more effective at lower wavelengths (higher energy input).

[0013] Perfume compositions according to the present invention may comprise perfume precursor compounds that release PRMs upon exposure to air / oxygen.

[0014] Thus, the PRM may be released from such perfume precursors by oxidation in the presence of air (ambient air) or oxygen, preferably ambient air.

[0015] For clarity, "ambient air" or similar expressions refer to the ordinary meaning understood by those skilled in the art, i.e., oxidation occurs in air at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure. In other words, the environment in which the compound is oxidized is air. It is therefore understood that the perfume precursor is oxidized in ambient air. In particular, it is understood that the perfume precursor does not necessarily require a pure oxygen environment, heat, or a catalyst to be oxidized.

[0016] Perfumed compositions according to the present invention may include perfume precursor compounds that release PRMs when exposed to heat.

[0017] "Heat" means any energy input that causes an increase in temperature. The temperature applied is not limited to a particular temperature range but depends on the individual perfume precursor. Determining the appropriate temperature is within the knowledge of one skilled in the art.

[0018] Perfumed compositions according to the present invention may include perfume precursor compounds that release PRMs upon exposure to moisture.

[0019] Such perfume precursors may exhibit water-induced decomposition sensitive chemical bonds and may therefore decompose in the presence of water.

[0020] Perfuming compositions according to the present invention may comprise perfume precursor compounds that release PRMs when exposed to enzymes.

[0021] Such perfume precursors may exhibit chemical bonds that can be efficiently degraded in the presence of enzymes. It is within the knowledge of one skilled in the art to determine which chemical bonds can be effectively degraded by a particular type of enzyme.

[0022] In some cases, there may be perfume precursors that promote the release of perfume raw materials not only based on one type of mechanism described above, but also based on one or more of the above types at the same time, or independently of each other.However, for every perfume precursor, there are one or two types of release mechanism that are particularly efficient or superior to other types that may be theoretically assumed.If not mentioned in any way within the context of the present invention, it is well within the knowledge of a person skilled in the art to determine the main type of release mechanism for an existing perfume precursor.

[0023] In a particular embodiment, the at least two perfume precursor compounds release the PRM via the same release mechanism.

[0024] In a particular embodiment, the perfume composition comprises 2 to 5 or even more perfume precursor compounds, preferably 2 to 3. In a particular embodiment, the perfume precursor compounds used in the present invention are structurally different types of perfume precursor compounds.

[0025] In a particular embodiment, the perfume composition comprises a first perfume precursor compound that releases a perfume compound upon exposure to air / oxygen and / or moisture and a second perfume precursor compound that releases a perfume compound upon exposure to air / oxygen and / or heat and / or moisture and / or light and / or enzymes, wherein the first perfume precursor compound and the second perfume precursor compound are structurally different types of perfume precursor compounds.

[0026] In a more particular embodiment, the perfume composition comprises a first perfume precursor compound that releases a perfume compound upon exposure to air / oxygen and / or moisture and a second perfume precursor compound that releases a perfume compound upon exposure to air / oxygen and / or moisture, wherein the first perfume precursor compound and the second perfume precursor compound are structurally different types of perfume precursor compounds.

[0138] Solid carrier means a material that can be chemically or physically bound to the fragrance composition or some components of the fragrance composition. Generally, such solid carriers are used to stabilize the composition or to control the evaporation rate of the composition or some components. The use of solid carriers is currently used in this field, and those skilled in the art know how to achieve the desired effect. However, non-limiting examples of solid carriers may include absorbent gums or polymers or inorganic materials, such as porous polymers, cyclodextrins, wood-based materials, organic or inorganic gels, clays, gypsum talc, or zeolites.

[0139] Non-limiting examples of solid carriers may include encapsulating materials. Examples of such materials may include wall-forming materials and plasticizing materials, such as monosaccharides, disaccharides, or trisaccharides, natural or modified starches, hydrocolloids, cellulose derivatives, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol, proteins, or pectins, or materials cited in references such as H. Scherz, Hydrokolloides: Stabilisatoren, Dickungs- und Geliermittel in Lebensmitteln, Band 2 der Schriftenreihe Lebensmittelchemie, Lebensmittelqualitaet, Behr's Verlag GmbH & Co., Hamburg, 1996. Encapsulation is a process well known to those skilled in the art, and may be carried out by using techniques such as spray drying, coagulation, or extrusion, or by coating encapsulation techniques, including coacervation and complex coacervation techniques.

[0140] Non-limiting examples of solid carriers may include core-shell capsules with aminoplast, polyamide, polyester, polyurea or polyurethane type resins or mixtures thereof (all of the above resins are well known to those skilled in the art) using techniques such as polymerization-induced phase separation processes, interfacial polymerization, coacervation or all of these (all of the above techniques are described in the prior art), optionally in the presence of polymeric stabilizers or cationic copolymers, among others.

[0141] The resins may be prepared by polycondensation of aldehydes (e.g., formaldehyde, 2,2-dimethoxyethanal, glyoxal, glyoxylic acid, or glycolaldehyde, and mixtures thereof) with amines, such as urea, benzoguanamine, glycoluril, melamine, methylolmelamine, methylated methylolmelamine, guanazole, and mixtures thereof. Alternatively, preformed resin alkylolated polyamines available on the market under the trademarks Urac® (supplied by Cytec Technology Corp.), Cymel® (supplied by Cytec Technology Corp.), Urecoll®, or Luracoll® (supplied by BASF) may be used.

[0142] Other resins are those prepared by polycondensation of polyols, such as glycerol, polyisocyanates, such as the trimer of hexamethylene diisocyanate, the trimer of isophorone diisocyanate or xylene diisocyanate or the biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate or the trimer of xylene diisocyanate, with trimethylolpropane (known under the trademark Takenate®, supplier: Mitsui Chemicals), among which the trimer of xylene diisocyanate is prepared by polycondensation with trimethylolpropane and the biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate.

[0143] Some of the seminal literature related to the encapsulation of perfumes by polycondensation of amino resins, i.e., melamine-based resins, with aldehydes, includes those described in articles such as Acta Polymerica (1989, Vol. 40, pp. 243, 325, and 683) and Acta Polymerica (1990, Vol. 41, p. 91), both published by K. Dietrich et al. These articles already describe the various parameters that affect the preparation of such core-shell microcapsules according to prior art methods, which are further detailed and exemplified in the patent literature. U.S. Patent No. 4,396,670 to Wiggins Teape Group Limited is a good early example of the latter. Since then, many other authors have enriched the literature in this field, and while it is impossible to cover all the advances published here, a general knowledge of encapsulation technology is extremely important. Relevant, more recent publications disclosing suitable uses of such microcapsules are described, for example, by K. Bruyninckx and M. Dusselier in ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering (2019, Vol. 7, pp. 8041-8054).

[0147] The compositions according to the invention may not be limited to the perfuming co-ingredients mentioned above, many others of which are in any case listed in reference texts, such as the book by S. Arctander, Perfume and Flavor Chemicals, 1969, Montclair, New Jersey, USA, or its latest editions, or other works of a similar type, as well as in the abundant patent literature in the field of perfumery.

[0148] In a particular embodiment, the perfuming composition according to the invention comprises a perfuming adjuvant.

[0149] The term "perfume adjuvant" is understood to mean an ingredient that can impart additional benefits such as color, especially lightfastness, chemical stability, etc. A detailed description of the nature and type of adjuvants typically used in perfume bases cannot be exhaustive, but it must be mentioned that these adjuvants are well known to those skilled in the art. However, specific, non-limiting examples may include viscosity modifiers (e.g., surfactants, thickeners, gelling agents and / or rheology modifiers), stabilizers (e.g., preservatives, antioxidants, heat / light and / or buffers or chelating agents, e.g., BHT), colorants (e.g., dyes and / or pigments), preservatives (e.g., antibacterial or antimicrobial or antifungal or anti-irritant agents), abrasives, skin cooling agents, fixatives, insect repellents, ointments, vitamins, and mixtures thereof.

[0150] It will be understood that a person skilled in the art can fully design the optimum formulation for the desired effect by mixing the above-mentioned components of the perfume composition simply by applying standard knowledge in this field as well as by trial and error methodology.

[0151] Another aspect of the present invention relates to perfumed consumer products comprising a perfume composition according to the present invention.

[0152] For clarity, it is noted that the term "perfumed consumer product" is understood to be a consumer product that is expected to provide at least a pleasant fragrance effect to the surface to which it is applied (e.g., skin, hair, fabric, or hard surface). In other words, a perfumed consumer product according to the present invention is a perfumed consumer product comprising the perfume composition of the present invention, and optionally an additional benefit agent corresponding to a desired consumer product, such as a conditioner, detergent, or air freshener, and an olfactorily effective amount of the perfume composition of the present invention. For clarity, the perfumed consumer product is a non-edible product.

[0153] The nature and type of ingredients of perfumed consumer products do not warrant a more detailed description herein, which is in any case not exhaustive and can be selected by a person skilled in the art on the basis of his general knowledge and according to the nature of the product and the desired effect.

[0155] Typical examples of fabric detergent compositions or fabric softener compositions that can incorporate the compounds of the present invention are described in International Patent No. 97 / 34986 or U.S. Patent Nos. 4,137,180 and 5,236,615 or European Patent No. 799885.Other typical detergent compositions and fabric softener compositions that can be used are described in studies such as Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Vol. 20, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, pp. 355-540 (2012); Flick, Advanced Cleaning Product Formulations, Noye Publication, Park Ridge, New Jersey (1989); Showell, in Surfactant Science Series, Vol. 71: Powdered Detergents, Marcel Dekker, New York (1988); Proceedings of the World Conference on Detergents (4th edition, 1998, Montreux, Switzerland), AOCS print.

[0156] The proportions of the perfuming compositions according to the invention that can be incorporated into the various articles or compositions mentioned above vary within a wide range of values, which depend on the nature of the article or product to be perfumed and the desired olfactory effect, when the compounds according to the invention are mixed with perfuming co-ingredients, solvents or additives commonly used in this field, as well as the nature of the co-ingredients in a given composition.

[0157] For perfumed consumer products, typical concentrations of the perfume composition of the present invention are on the order of 0.001% to 10% by weight, and even more preferably 0.01% to 5% by weight, based on the weight of the consumer product into which the perfume composition is incorporated.

[0158] In particular embodiments, the perfumed consumer product is a perfume, a fabric care product, a body care product, a cosmetic, a skin care product, an air care product or a home care product.

[0159] In particular embodiments, the perfumed consumer product is a fine perfume, a splash or eau de parfum, a cologne, a shave or aftershave lotion, a liquid or solid detergent, a fabric softener, a fabric refresher, an ironing water, paper, a bleach, a carpet cleaner, a curtain care product, a shampoo, a color preparation, a color care product, a hair styling product, a dental care product, a disinfectant, an intimate care product, a hairspray, a hair conditioning product, a vanishing cream, a deodorant or antiperspirant, a hair remover, a tanning or sunscreen product, a nail product, a skin cleanser, a make-up, a perfumed soap, a shower or bath mousse, an oil or gel, a foot care / hand care product, a hygiene product, an air freshener, a "ready to use" powder air refresher, a mold remover, a furniture care, a wipe, a dish detergent or hard surface cleaner, a leather care product, a car care product.

[0160] Another aspect of the present invention relates to the use of a perfuming composition according to the present invention to improve, enhance, impart and / or modify the scent impression and / or scent intensity of a consumer product.

[0161] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method for improving, enhancing, imparting and / or modifying the fragrance impression and / or fragrance intensity of a consumer product, comprising the step of adding to the consumer product a fragrance composition according to the present invention.

[0162] In view of the above, by combining two or more perfume precursors, the perfume composition of the present invention exhibits an improved release profile of highly volatile perfume raw materials (PRM), thereby exhibiting a more extended release of volatile perfume raw materials (PRM).

NMR spectral data are given in the examples unless otherwise indicated. 1 For H, it is 500MHz, 13 Spectra for C were recorded on a Bruker AMX 500 spectrometer in CDCl at 125.8 MHz; chemical shifts δ are given in ppm relative to Si(CH) as the standard; coupling constants J are expressed in Hz (br is a broad peak). Reactions were carried out in standard glassware under N. Commercially available reagents and solvents were used without further purification unless otherwise stated.

[0164] Although specific conformations or configurations are shown for some of the compounds, this is not meant to limit the use of these compounds to the isomers depicted, and all possible conformational or configurational isomers are expected to have similar effects according to the present invention.

Each aqueous phase was re-extracted with ether (200 mL). The combined organic phase is dried (Na2SO4), filtered through sintered glass, and concentrated. The overhead fraction is removed by distillation in vacuum (0.1 mbar, 61 ° C). The residue is filtered through sintered glass to obtain 37.4 g (74%) of the title compound.

Each aqueous phase was re-extracted with ether (300 mL). The combined organic phases were dried (NaSO), filtered, concentrated, and dried under vacuum (0.5 mbar, 2 h). Another filtration through sintered glass, removal of the overhead fraction by distillation in vacuo (2 times 0.08 mbar, 35–38 °C), and filtration through sintered glass afforded 37.5 g (82%) of the title compound as a mixture of cis / trans isomers (approximately 4:1).

[0208] (al) Dec-9-en-1-yl (E)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate [compound 38, fragrance precursor according to formula (XI)] A mixture of ethyl (E)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate (5.00 g, 26.0 mmol), deca-9-enol (6.10 g, 39.0 mmol), and tetraisopropoxytitanium (1.00 g, 3.5 mmol) was heated at 150 °C for 2 h in a Dean-Starks apparatus to remove ethanol. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was taken up in diethyl ether and washed with a saturated aqueous solution of NaCl. The organic phase was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated. Bulb-to-bulb distillation (0.1 mbar, 100 °C) to remove remaining volatiles gave a residue that was treated with n-heptane (3 times). The heptane phase was decanted, concentrated, and dried under vacuum to give the crude product.

[0209] (am) Synthesis of Compounds 39-44 [Fragrance Precursors of Formula (XII)] An aqueous solution of KOH (10%, 75 mL) was cooled to 0 °C. Hexanal (150 g, 1.5 mol) was added dropwise over 1 h while maintaining the reaction mixture temperature below 5 °C, followed by stirring for an additional 3 h. Diethyl ether (200 mL) was added to the cooled reaction mixture, and the aqueous and organic phases of the reaction mixture were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ether (200 mL), and the combined organic phases were extracted with water until the aqueous phase was neutral to pH paper. The ether phase was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated. Adipic acid (2 g) was added, and the sample was fractionally distilled under vacuum. Hexanal liberated from the decomposing aldoxane was removed by heating the distillation flask to 95 °C, and the hexanal aldol (2-butyl-3-hydroxyoctanal) was then distilled (bp, 103–104 °C, 2.6 Pa). This was obtained in 40% yield (59.2 g, 0.30 mol) and was collected in a receiving flask cooled with a dry ice / acetone slurry to minimize dimerization. 16CHO (0.9-1.1 eq., Table 1) was weighed into a flask and stirred at room temperature for at least one day to give the corresponding fragrance precursors (±)-5-butyl-2-heptyl-6-pentyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (compound 39), (±)-5-butyl-2-nonyl-6-pentyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (compound 40), (±)-5-butyl-6-pentyl-2-undecyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (compound 41), and (±)-5-butyl-6-pentyl-2-undecyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (compound 42). (Compound 41), (±)-5-butyl-6-pentyl-2-(2-phenylpropyl)-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (Compound 42), (±)-2-benzyl-5-butyl-6-pentyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (Compound 43), and (±)-5-butyl-2-(4-(tert-butyl)phenethyl)-6-pentyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ol (Compound 44), respectively, were prepared. GCMS analysis of this mixture (as acetate derivatives) indicated that the desired fragrance precursor, as a mixture of stereoisomers, was the major component in the resulting material. MS fragment characteristics (of the acetate derivatives) are listed in Table 1 below and confirm the formation of the desired compounds. Acetates for GC analysis were prepared by mixing the sample with an acetylating reagent in a GC vial in an approximately 1:4 volume ratio. The reagent was prepared by mixing acetic anhydride and pyridine (1 mL each) with DMAP (50 mg). The fragment ions listed in Table 1 are the molecular ion (M + ), (M-1) + ION, (MR 16 ) + ion [according to formula (XII)], (M-59) + ion (loss of acetate group) and (M-60) + ion (loss of acetic acid). The perfume precursor thus prepared was used without further purification.

[0214] (ap) Synthesis of 1-butoxy-3-((1E,4Z)-hepta-1,4-dien-1-yl)benzene [compound 47, fragrance precursor according to formula (XIV)] (a) 3-Butoxybenzaldehyde (5.35 g, 30.0 mmol) was added via syringe to an ice-cold Grignard reagent prepared from Mg turnings (0.95 g, 39.1 mmol) and (Z)-chlorohex-3-ene (4.63 g, 39.0 mmol) in THF (65 mL) over a 25 min period. The temperature was maintained at 3–5 °C during the addition. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into an aqueous solution of HCl (10%, 100 mL) and ice. Diethyl ether (200 mL) was added, and the organic phase was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of NaCl (twice). The aqueous phase was re-extracted with ether (100 mL).

[0216] (aq) Synthesis of 1-(3-(2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-yloxy)prop-1-enyl)-4-methoxybenzene [compound 48, fragrance precursor according to formula (XV)] Cinnamyl ethers were prepared by Heck reaction between aryl halides and allyl ethers according to literature procedures (I. Ambrogio, G. Fabrizi, S. Cacchi, ST Henriksen, R. Fristrup, D. Tanner, P.-O. Norrby, Organometallics, 2008, 27, 3187-3195).

[0217] General procedure: The alcohol was added slowly under N to a mixture of NaH (60% in mineral oil) in dimethylformamide (DMF). Using an addition funnel, allyl bromide was added at a rate such that the subsequent exotherm allowed the temperature of the mixture to remain at approximately 70°C. The mixture was stirred for an additional 15 min, and then water was added. The mixture was diluted with diethyl ether, and after washing with water, the organic phase was dried (NaSO), filtered, and concentrated. Flash chromatography (SiO), followed by optional bulb-to-bulb distillation, afforded the allyl ethers in 29–90% yield.

[0218] The aryl halide was added to a mixture of allyl ether, tetrabutylammonium acetate, palladium(II) acetate, and DMF. The mixture was placed in a preheated oil bath at 90 °C. The reaction progress was monitored by GC analysis. Upon consumption of the aryl halide (0.5–2.0 h for aryl iodides, 16–24 h for aryl bromides), the reaction mixture was removed from the oil bath. Water and diethyl ether were added to the mixture, and the resulting emulsion was filtered through a pad of Celite® before phase separation. The ether phase was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated. Flash chromatography (SiO2, hexane / CHCl2 / ethyl acetate) afforded an oil dominated by cinnamyl ether.

[0219] Starting from 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-ol (dihydromyrcenol) (5 g, 32 mmol), allyl bromide (19.35 g, 160 mmol), DMF (27 ml) and NaH (1.3 g, 32 mmol), 2 g of 7-(allyloxy)-3,7-dimethyloct-1-ene (10.2 mmol, 40% yield) was obtained after flash chromatography. This allyl ether (5.6 g, 28.5 mmol), 1-iodo-4-methoxybenzene (5 g, 21.4 mmol), tetrabutylammonium acetate (10.7 g, 35.6 mmol), Pd(OAc) (128 mg, 570 μmol), and DMF (25 mL) were purified by flash chromatography (SiO, hexane / CHCl / ethyl acetate 100 / 0 / 0 to 50 / 50 / 0, then 99 / 0 / 1) to give 2.55 g (8.43 mmol, 39% yield) of an isomeric mixture containing 71% of the title compound (E / Z=12.8:1). This fragrance precursor compound releases 4-methoxybenzaldehyde, 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-yl formate, and 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-ol upon exposure to air / oxygen and moisture. [ka]

[0220] Synthesis of (ar)(E)-4-(3-((2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-yl)oxy)prop-1-en-1-yl)-2-methoxyphenol [Compound 49, fragrance precursor according to formula (XV)] The title compound was prepared according to the general procedure described for the synthesis of compound 48. Starting from 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-ol (dihydromyrcenol), allyl bromide, NaH, and DMF, 7-(allyloxy)-3,7-dimethyloct-1-ene was obtained. Using this allyl ether, 4-iodo-2-methoxyphenol, tetrabutylammonium acetate, Pd(OAc)2, and DMF, the title compound was obtained after flash chromatography (SiO2, hexane / ethyl acetate). This fragrance precursor compound releases vanillin, 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-yl formate, and 2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-ol upon exposure to air / oxygen and moisture. [ka]

[0221] (as) Synthesis of (E)-4-(3-(((Z)-hex-3-en-1-yl)oxy)prop-1-en-1-yl)-2-methoxyphenol [Compound 50, fragrance precursor according to formula (XV)] The title compound was prepared according to the general procedure described for the synthesis of compound 48. Starting from (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol, allyl bromide, NaH, and DMF, (Z)-1-(allyloxy)hex-3-ene was obtained. Using this allyl ether, 4-bromo-2-methoxyphenol, tetrabutylammonium acetate, Pd(OAc)2, and DMF, the title compound was obtained after flash chromatography (SiO2, hexane / ethyl acetate). This fragrance precursor compound releases vanillin, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-yl formate, and (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol upon exposure to air / oxygen and moisture. [ka]

[0222] Example 2 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention in model surface cleaner applications Combinations of structurally different fragrance precursors of different general formulas Perfume precursors according to the present invention were dissolved individually or in pairs in 2-propanol (0.2-0.4 mL). An aqueous solution of sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES, 10%) was then added to a volume of 5 g, resulting in simplified model surface cleaner formulations containing the perfume precursors. In some cases, the solution was slightly heated to improve dissolution. Aliquots (90 mg) of this solution were spread onto glass plates (2.5 x 7.5 cm) and allowed to dry for 24 h. The amount of each perfume precursor initially weighed out was selected to release a total of 0.45 mg of the corresponding perfume compound onto the glass plate.

[0223] The glass plate was then placed in a homemade headspace cell (approximately 625 mL internal volume), and a continuous flow of air (approximately 200 mL / min) was drawn through the sampling cell. This airflow was passed through a saturated aqueous solution of activated carbon and NaCl to ensure a constant humidity of 75%. Volatiles were then adsorbed onto a discarded Tenax® cartridge for 15 minutes and then onto a new Tenax® cartridge for another 15 minutes over a 3-h (180-min) period, collecting a total of six data points. The discarded cartridge was discarded, and another cartridge was desorbed (280 °C, 10 min) using a Markes TD 100-XR desorber. The volatiles were then injected into an Agilent Technologies 7890A gas chromatograph equipped with a Supelco SPB1 capillary column (30 m, 0.25 mm internal diameter, 0.25 μm film) and connected to an Agilent 5975C inert MDS mass spectrometer. Volatiles were eluted with a flow of 0.9 mL / min He using a temperature gradient varying from 40°C (1 min) to 180°C at 10°C / min and then to 260°C at 30°C / min. Headspace concentrations (ng / L air) were obtained by external standard calibration using various concentrations of aroma compounds released in ethanol. Each calibration solution (0.2 μL) was injected into a new Tenax® cartridge, which was desorbed and analyzed under the same conditions. All measurements were performed at least in duplicate.

[0224] The average headspace concentrations (average of six data points) of perfume compounds released from each perfume precursor and from the corresponding perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention are listed in Table 2.

[0225] [Table 2-1] [Table 2-2]

[0226] The data in Table 2 demonstrate that perfume precursor compositions containing at least two structurally distinct perfume precursor compounds exhibit a synergistic effect by releasing a relatively large amount of at least one of the perfume precursor compounds. This effect can be significant, with increases of up to more than 1000%. In most cases, a positive effect was observed for both perfumes released from the two structurally distinct perfume precursors in the composition. However, in some cases, a decrease in one of the perfume compounds was observed. In these cases, the increase in perfume released from the other perfume precursor in the mixture was greater than the decrease, thus still resulting in an increase in the overall performance of the perfume precursor compounds according to the present invention. For example, in a composition of Compound 7 and Compound 24, a significant decrease (-55%) in the amount of perfume compound released from Compound 24 was observed, but an extraordinary increase (+950%) in the amount of perfume compound released from Compound 7 was observed. A similar effect was observed for a composition of Compound 24 (-27%) and Compound 31 (+1217%).

[0227] It is also quite remarkable that compositions containing structurally different perfume precursors (e.g., compound 30 according to formula (VIII) and compound 31 according to formula (IX)) that release the same perfume compound by two different mechanisms produce significantly greater amounts of the corresponding perfume compound than would be expected from the sum of the two individual compounds.

[0228] The data in Table 2 clearly demonstrate that a positive synergistic effect of perfume release can be obtained from perfume precursor compositions comprising at least two structurally different perfume precursor compounds according to the present invention, compared to the amount of perfume released from individual perfume precursors processed under the same conditions. This strong positive synergistic effect of perfume release obtainable from perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention is highly surprising and unexpected from the teachings of the prior art.

[0229] Comparative Example 2 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the invention in model surface cleaner applications Combinations of structurally equivalent perfume precursors of the same general formula (I) This comparative test was carried out using the same conditions as described above in Example 2 on structurally equivalent perfume precursor compositions of formula (I), all releasing different perfume compounds via the same release mechanism, and the results are summarized in Table 3.

[0230] [Table 3]

[0231] Here, compositions of structurally equivalent perfume precursors, both of the same general formula (I), released less perfume compound into the headspace than each individual perfume precursor. In this case, no positive synergistic effect was observed. Therefore, the use of compositions of structurally different types of perfume precursor compounds according to the present invention is advantageous.

[0232] Example 3 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention in enzyme-containing model surface cleaner applications Combination of a perfume precursor of formula (VIII) with a perfume precursor of formula (XIII) This example was carried out as described above (in Example 2) using an aqueous solution (10%) of SLES containing detergent alkaline lipase (DETE-2624, supplied by Creative Enzymes, 10 μg / mL) by depositing 100 μL of this solution onto a glass plate.

[0233] Table 4 summarizes the average headspace concentrations (average of six data points) of fragrance compounds released from individual fragrance precursors and corresponding fragrance precursor compositions according to the present invention.

[0234] [Table 4]

[0235] In the presence of the enzyme, a perfume precursor composition according to the present invention comprising at least one compound according to formula (XIII) released a greater amount of perfume compound than an individual perfume precursor according to formula (XIII) in the absence of another perfume precursor.

[0236] Example 4 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention in fabric softener applications Combination of a perfume precursor of formula (I) with a perfume precursor of formula (IV) Preparation of Liquid Fabric Softener: A liquid fabric softener was prepared by mixing 12.3 wt% TEA-esterquat (methyl bis[ethyl(tallowate)]-2-hydroxyethylammonium methyl sulfate, Stepantex® VL 90A), 0.4 wt% 10% aqueous calcium chloride, 0.04 wt% 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one (Proxel® GXL), and 87.2 wt% deionized water. The liquid fabric softener was prepared by placing water and 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one in a reactor and heating the mixture to 65°C with stirring. The methyl bis[ethyl(tallowate)]-2-hydroxyethylammonium methyl sulfate, also heated to 65°C, was then added. After 15 minutes of stirring, CaCl was added and the mixture was cooled to room temperature.

[0237] Compounds 9 to 18 (11.3 mg each) as perfume precursors according to formula (IV) were weighed into vials together with compound 1 (11.3 mg) as perfume precursor according to formula (I) and dissolved in acetone (70 mg). The synthesis of the different perfume precursors is described in Example 1. Liquid fabric softener (4.5 g) was added to the vials and the mixture was mixed by hand shaking. Reference samples were prepared in the same way using equimolar amounts of the perfume components expected to be released. Fabric softener samples containing individual compounds 1 and 9 to 18 (11.3 mg) were prepared in the same way.

[0238] Liquid Fabric Softener Application: The fabric softener sample was rinsed into a 3 L beaker with deionized water and the beaker was filled to a total volume of 1.5 L. Three 5 g cotton fabric scraps (approximately 12.5 x 12.5 cm, weighing 270 g / m 2 (Item 403 from Testfabrics, West Pittston, PA) was added to the beaker and manually stirred for 3 minutes. After an additional 2 minutes, the fabric strips were removed and the excess water was manually squeezed out. The fabric strips were hung to dry at room temperature overnight (15-16 hours). Two of the fabric strips were then subjected to dynamic headspace analysis.

[0239] Headspace analysis from fabric softener application: Each analyzed fabric scrap was placed in a thermostated (30°C) headspace sampling cell (approximately 160 mL internal volume). Using an air sampling pump, a constant air flow (200 mL / min) was passed through the sampling cell and then through a poly(2,6-diphenyl-p-phenylene oxide) (Tenax® TA, 100 mg) cartridge. Before entering the sample cell, the air was passed through a plug of activated carbon and then through a saturated NaCl solution to maintain a constant relative humidity of 75%. Headspace samples were collected for 30 min. The cartridge was then analyzed using a Perkin Elmer TurboMatrix™ mass spectrometer interfaced with an Agilent 6890 gas chromatograph equipped with an Agilent 5975C mass spectrometer and a Varian VF-1ms capillary column (30 m, 0.25 mm internal diameter, 0.25 μm film). Thermal desorption was performed using a 650 thermal desorber. Desorber parameters were: bulb temperature 250°C, transfer line 250°C, purge time 1 min, desorption temperature 240°C, desorption time 5 min, desorption flow rate 20 mL / min, trap ramp from -30°C to 250°C at 40°C / sec, trap hold time 4 min, outlet spirit 48 mL / min, and column flow 1 mL / min. The GC oven temperature profile was ramped at 20°C / min from 52°C (1 min) to 210°C and then to 250°C (2 min). For the analysis of (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol, the initial oven temperature was 40°C (2 min). The peak areas obtained for each analyte (SIM mode) were measured, and the average values ​​are shown in Table 5.

[0240] [Table 5-1] [Table 5-2] [Table 5-3]

[0241] The data presented in Table 5 show that after fabric softener application, higher amounts of the individual perfume raw materials can be detected upon release from a perfume composition containing two perfume precursors compared to a reference mixture containing the individual perfume raw materials, demonstrating the advantageous sustained release effect of the perfume precursors compared to the individual volatile perfume raw materials.

[0242] Furthermore, the data show that greater amounts of at least one perfume raw material can be detected upon release from the mixture of perfume precursors compared to the use of each perfume precursor alone (i.e., not in combination). In many cases, even greater amounts of all perfume raw materials can be detected upon release from the mixture of perfume precursors compared to the use of each perfume precursor alone (e.g., compounds 12, 13, 15, and 18).

[0243] Thus, this data shows that not only is the use of multiple perfume precursors more effective than the use of individual perfume raw materials, but that combinations of perfume precursors are more effective than the use of perfume precursors alone (not in combination with other perfume precursors).

[0244] Example 5 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention in fabric softener applications A combination of a perfume precursor of formula (I) or a perfume precursor of formula (IV) with a perfume precursor of formula (XIII) Headspace Analysis from Fabric Softener Application: Lipase-containing liquid laundry detergent was prepared by mixing 1 g of lipase (Addclean LP L, Enzyme Innovation, Chino, CA) with 99 g of Tide Free and Gentle. Ten grams (10 g) of lipase-containing detergent were diluted with 1 L of deionized water in a large beaker. Twelve 5 g cotton fabric scraps (approximately 12.5 x 12.5 cm, weighing 270 g / m) were used. 2, Item 403 from Testfabrics, West Pittston, PA) were added to a beaker, manually stirred for several minutes, and then soaked in the detergent solution for a total of 15 minutes. The fabric scraps were removed together and the excess liquid was manually squeezed out. In a second beaker, the fabric scraps were placed in 1 L of demineralized water, manually separated, and allowed to soak for 2 minutes. The fabric scraps were then individually removed and the excess liquid was manually squeezed out.

[0245] Four fabric softener samples were prepared as described above, containing Compound 45 (11.3 mg) as a perfume precursor according to Formula (XIII), another perfume precursor according to Formula (I) (Compound 1) or Formula (IV) (Compound 9) (11.3 mg), each individual perfume precursor (11.3 mg), and a reference sample containing equimolar amounts of the perfume components expected to be released. Each fabric softener sample was rinsed into a 3 L beaker with deionized water, and the beaker was filled to a total volume of 1.5 L. Three 5 g pieces of pre-washed, damp cotton fabric scraps were added to the beaker and manually stirred for 3 minutes. After an additional 2 minutes, the scraps were removed and excess water was manually squeezed out. The scraps were then hung to dry at room temperature overnight (15-16 h). These scraps were then subjected to dynamic headspace analysis as described above. The peak areas obtained for each analyte (SIM mode) were measured and the average values ​​are shown in Table 6.

[0246] [Table 6]

[0247] The headspace data show that the perfume precursor blends, when used as a mixture, release higher levels of perfume volatiles compared to their respective reference samples, demonstrating the desired sustained release effect of the perfume precursor molecules.

[0248] Example 6 Performance of perfume precursor compositions according to the present invention in fabric softener applications Combination of a perfume precursor of formula (IV) with a perfume precursor of formula (X) Headspace Analysis from Fabric Softener Application: Comparative perfume precursors (individually or as a mixture) were added to liquid fabric softener formulations as described in Example 4 to release a total of 0.5 wt% perfume.

[0249] Compound 9 (29.0 mg) as a perfume precursor according to formula (IV) and compound 32 (31.9 mg) as a perfume precursor according to formula (X) were added to the fabric softener formulation (3.0 g) and stirred with a magnetic stirrer.

[0250] In a flask, a fabric softener formulation containing 70 mg of perfume precursor was diluted with 23 g of cold demineralized tap water. The sample was vigorously shaken (10 times). A cotton sheet (EMPA cotton test cloth No. 221, supplier: Eidgenoessische Materialpruefanstalt) pre-washed with unperfumed detergent powder and cut into approximately 15 x 15 cm sheets (approximately 5.1 g) was then added, manually stirred for 3 minutes, allowed to stand for 2 minutes, then squeezed by hand and weighed to obtain a constant amount of residual water (approximately 10.0 g). The cotton sheet was line-dried for 1 day before analysis.

[0251] A reference sample was prepared in the same manner using an equal amount of perfume raw material expected to be released.

[0252] For the measurement, the sheet was placed in a headspace sampling cell (internal volume approximately 165 mL) installed in a xenon lamp (CO.FO.ME.GRA Solarbox 1500). The headspace cell was thermostatted at 25°C and exposed to a constant air flow of approximately 200 mL / min. Air was filtered through activated carbon and drawn through a saturated aqueous solution of NaCl (to ensure a constant air humidity of approximately 75%). The system was equilibrated for 10 minutes while adsorbing volatiles on a discarded Tenax® cartridge (filled with 100 mg of Tenax® TA adsorbent resin), followed by 5 minutes on a new Tenax® cartridge (first data point). The xenon lamp was then switched on, providing 3.1 mW / cm of light on the cotton surface.2 The UVA light (approximately 45,000 lux) was applied, and the volatiles were adsorbed onto waste Tenax® cartridges for 5 minutes, followed by five 5-minute runs onto new Tenax® cartridges (data points 2–6). The volatiles were then adsorbed onto waste Tenax® cartridges for 5 minutes and then onto new Tenax® cartridges for 5 minutes (three runs, data points 7–9). Finally, the volatiles were adsorbed onto waste Tenax® cartridges for 25 minutes and then onto new Tenax® cartridges for 5 minutes (data point 10). The waste Tenax® cartridges were discarded; the new Tenax® cartridges were desorbed on a Perkin Elmer TurboMatrix ATD thermal desorber connected to an Agilent Technologies 7890A GC system equipped with an FID. Volatiles were eluted from an HP-5 capillary column (30 m × 0.32 μm, 0.25 μm film) using He with a temperature gradient of 15°C / min from 60°C to 200°C. Headspace concentrations (ng / L) were obtained by external standard calibration by injecting a solution of known amounts of volatiles into a new Tenax® cartridge and desorbing as described above. All data are the average of at least duplicate measurements. Headspace concentrations obtained after 75 minutes of sampling (9th data point) are summarized in Table 7.

[0253] [Table 7]

[0254] The headspace data show that the perfume precursor blends, when used as a mixture, release higher levels of perfume volatiles compared to their respective reference samples, demonstrating the desired sustained release effect of the perfume precursor molecules.

[0255] Furthermore, the data show that greater amounts of perfume raw materials can be detected upon release from a mixture of perfume precursors compared to the use of each perfume precursor alone (i.e., not in combination), thus providing advantages over the use of individual perfume precursors.
