| 1-Hexen-3-ol Usage And Synthesis |
Description | 1-hexen-3-ol belongs to the family of allylic alcohols which contain an alcohol group attached to the allyl functional group. It is naturally found in banana, French fried potato, mustard, black tea, salted and pickled plums, dill herb, cherimoya, and scallop. It has an ethereal, run like odor.
It is used as a flavor agent in foods (e.g. condiments, gravies, meat products, seasoning flavors, snack foods, and soups).
