Synthesis route :

As for other Salicylates, cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is synthesized by an esterification reaction between salicylic acid and cis-3-hexenol. It is the use of cis-3-Hexenol which gives the molecule its characteristic green note of cut grass.

Synthesis precursor :

Cis-3-Hexenyl salicylate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Isomerism :

Trans-3-Hexenyl Salicylate, a diastereoisomer of cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate, exists but is very little used.

Natural availability :

Cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is present in a small amount in carnation absolute. Knowing that carnation offers only a very low extraction yields, natural cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is very little produced. The synthetic compound is more often used in perfumery.

Allergens :

This ingredient does not contain any allergen.
