Title of the Innovation: A Cost-effective and Greener Process for 3-methyl-5-phenylpentanol (Mefrosol)
Brief About Innovation
Introduction
Mefrosol is an industrially important perfumery chemical that gives freshness and volume in both floral and citrus fragrances. Due to high demand and no indigenous process available, India imports this perfumery chemical in large quantity, primarily from China.
Compared to the conventional techniques, the present process is much greener in terms of both waste management and the use of benign ingredients and allows for reducing the cost tentatively 20-25% of the existing market price.
Summary Application
Mefrosol is an industrially important perfumery chemical that is primarily imported from abroad. Thus, perfumery industries are the target sector for this product. The present process is cost-competitive as it utilizes commercial grade starting materials, reagents and solvents.
The present process is consistently reproducible and hence, reliable to industrial applications.
