ou 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle, également dénommé a-cyclogéraniate de méthyle.The invention relates to a new fragrance ingredient, in the specific case to an alicyclic ester of formula
Figure imgb0001
or methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate, also known as methyl a-cyclogeraniate.

L'invention a pour objet l'utilisation dudit composé (I) à titre d'ingrédient parfumant, notamment son utilisation à l'etat pur ou en mélange avec au moins un ingrédient parfumant ci-après: a-damascone, β-damascone, y-damascone, δ-damascone, s-damascone, a-damascenone, β-damascenone, y-damascenone et 8-damascenoneThe subject of the invention is the use of said compound (I) as a perfuming ingredient, in particular its use in the pure state or as a mixture with at least one perfuming ingredient below: a-damascone, β-damascone, y-damascone, δ-damascone, s-damascone, a-damascenone, β-damascenone, y-damascenone and 8-damascenone

L'invention a également pour objet une composition parfumante contenant ledit composé (1), notamment une composition parfumante contenant ledit composé (1) pur ou en melange avec aumoins un des ingrédients parfumants définis plus haut.The subject of the invention is also a perfume composition containing said compound (1), in particular a perfume composition containing said compound (1) pure or in mixture with at least one of the perfume ingredients defined above.

Le 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-éne-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle (1) est un composé connu [voir par exemple Helv. Chim. Acta 42, 2597 (1959)]; ses propriétés olfactives n'ont cependant pas été décrites jusqu'à maintenant.Methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate (1) is a known compound [see for example Helv. Chim. Acta 42, 2597 (1959)]; its olfactory properties have not been described so far, however.

Lorsque l'on considère les esters alicycliques analogues ou homologues du composé (I), on parvient à définir l'état présent de la technique au moyen du tableu ci-après:

Figure imgb0002
Figure imgb0003
When we consider analogous or homologous alicyclic esters of compound (I), we succeed in defining the present state of the art by means of the table below:
Figure imgb0002
Figure imgb0003

De l'état de la technique précité, on peut aisément déduire que seuls présentent un intérêt pour la parfumerie les esters homologues supérieurs du 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle (I), notamment les esters éthyliques comportant un groupe éthyle en position 2 du cycle à 6 membres, voire un groupe méthyle additionnel en position 3, ainsi que des mélanges isomériques de composés polyinsaturés correspondants, a-, β-et y-safranates d'éthyle plus précisément.From the aforementioned state of the art, it can easily be deduced that only the higher homologous esters of methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate are of interest for perfumery (I) , in particular ethyl esters comprising an ethyl group in position 2 of the 6-membered ring, or even an additional methyl group in position 3, as well as isomeric mixtures of corresponding polyunsaturated compounds, ethyl a-, β- and y-safranates plus precisely.

Les composés homologues inférieurs de la série définie ci-dessus, notamment le composé (I) et son isomère, le β-cyclogéraniate de méthyle, n'ont par contre jamais retenu l'attention des parfumeurs.The lower homologous compounds of the series defined above, in particular the compound (I) and its isomer, methyl β-cyclogeraniate, on the other hand have never caught the attention of perfumers.

Dans un tel contexte, il était donc d'autant plus surprenant de découvrir que le 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle (I) pouvait présenter un grand intérêt pour la parfumerie.In such a context, it was therefore all the more surprising to discover that methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate (I) could be of great interest for perfumery.

Le composé (I) développe en effet une note olfactive originale que l'on peut qualifier de tout à la fois fruitée et florale, accompagnée d'une tonalité fraîche du genre hespéridé. Ce fait est d'autant plus remarquable que ces caractères olfactifs ne se développent pleinement que lorsque le composé (I) est utilisé sous forme diluée, en particulier sous forme de solution à 10, 5 ou 1%, voire moins.Compound (I) indeed develops an original olfactory note that can be described as both fruity and floral, accompanied by a fresh tone of the citrus genus. This fact is all the more remarkable since these olfactory characters only develop fully when the compound (I) is used in diluted form, in particular in the form of a 10, 5 or 1% solution, or even less.

De ce fait, le composé (I) peut être avantageusement utilisé pour le parfumage de produits tels que savons, détergents liquides ou solides, produits cosmétiques ou produits d'entretien par exemple. Il peut être en outre utilisé tout aussi avantageusement en parfumerie fine, notamment pour la préparation de compositions parfumantes de type fruité, fleuri, rosé, boisé, épicé, chypre ou hespéridé par exemple.Therefore, the compound (I) can be advantageously used for perfuming products such as soaps, liquid or solid detergents, cosmetic products or cleaning products for example. It can also be used just as advantageously in fine perfumery, in particular for the preparation of perfuming compositions of the fruity, floral, rosé, woody, spicy, chypre or citrus type, for example.

Dans un tel cas, le composé (I) peut s'utiliser pur ou en mélange avec un ou plusieurs ingrédients parfumants, un solvant ou un support usuel. Lors de la préparation de compositions parfumantes, le composé (I) s'utilise de préférence à raison de 0,1 à 5, voire 10% environ par rapport au poids de ladite composition. Des proportions supérieures à 10% peuvent être également considérées, en particulier lors de la préparation de bases ou coeurs pour parfums. Des proportions inférieures à 0,1 % peuvent être également envisagées, notamment lors du parfumage de produits tels que savons, détergents ou produits cosmétiques par exemple.In such a case, the compound (I) can be used pure or in mixture with one or more perfuming ingredients, a solvent or a usual support. When preparing perfuming compositions, the compound (I) is preferably used in an amount of 0.1 to 5, or even 10% approximately relative to the weight of said composition. Proportions greater than 10% can also be considered, in particular when preparing bases or hearts for perfumes. Proportions less than 0.1% can also be envisaged, in particular when perfuming products such as soaps, detergents or cosmetic products for example.

Dans le cadre de la présente invention, il a été découvert en outre que le 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl- carboxylate de méthyle (I) pouvait avoir une action particulièrement intéressante au niveau des effets olfactifs de certains ingrédients parfumants, notamment ceux de la série des damascones et damascénones. Damascones et damascénones sont des ingrédients très appréciés tant en parfumerie fine que lors du parfumage de produits techniques: ils se caractérisent notamment par une note olfactive rosée et boisée remarquablement radiante, voire fruitée de type pomme, ou menthée selon les cas.In the context of the present invention, it has also been discovered that methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate (I) could have a particularly advantageous action in terms of the effects olfactory agents of certain perfume ingredients, in particular those of the series of damascones and damascenones. Damascones and damascenones are very popular ingredients both in fine perfumery and during the perfuming of technical products: they are characterized in particular by a remarkably radiant rosy and woody olfactory note, even fruity like apple, or mint depending on the case.

Du point de vue olfactif, le composé (I) a entre autres l'avantage de se combiner de façon très harmonieuse auxdites damascones et damascénones, contribuant à leur donner encore plus de richesse et de rondeur. Le composé (I) a en outre la particularité d'abaisser sensiblement le niveau de perception olfactive des ingrédients sus-nommés: on peut parler à ce propos d'effet synergétique.From an olfactory point of view, compound (I) has, among other things, the advantage of combining in a very harmonious manner with said damascones and damascenones, contributing to give them even more richness and roundness. Compound (I) also has the particularity of significantly lowering the level of olfactory perception of the aforementioned ingredients: we can speak in this connection of synergistic effect.

Lorsque le 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle (I) s'utilise en mélange avec une ou plusieurs desdites damascones ou damascénones, des effet olfactifs tels que ceux mentionnés ci-dessus peuvent être obtenus par l'emploi de mélanges composé (I)/damascone ou damascénone dans lesquels les proportions de chacun des constituants sont le plus généralement comprises entre 20:1 et 1:20. Les proportions données ci-dessus ne sont cependant pas à considérer comme des limites absolues.When methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate (I) is used in mixture with one or more of said damascones or damascenones, olfactory effects such as those mentioned above can be obtained by using mixtures of compound (I) / damascone or damascenone in which the proportions of each of the constituents are most generally between 20: 1 and 1:20. The proportions given above are not, however, to be considered as absolute limits.

Le 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxalate de méthyle (I) peut être aisément obtenu selon les méthodes décrites dans la littérature, par exemple par estérification de l'acide cyclogéranique correspondant ou par cyclisation de géraniate de méthyle [voir par exemple Helv. Chim. Acta 42, 2597 (1959) et Chem. Abstr. 57, 11239; (1962)].Methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxalate (I) can be easily obtained according to the methods described in the literature, for example by esterification of the corresponding cyclogeranic acid or by cyclization of methyl geraniate [see for example Helv. Chim. Acta 42, 2597 (1959) and Chem. Abstr. 57, 11239; (1962)].

L'invention sera illustrée de façon plus détaillée à l'aide des exemples ci-après.The invention will be illustrated in more detail with the aid of the examples below.

Exemple 1Example 1

Un détergent en poudre du commerce, olfactivement neutre, a été parfumé à raison de 0,05% à l'aide de 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle. Il acquiert ainsi une odeur agréable de type fruité, rappelant notamment celle de fruits mûrs.A commercially available powdered detergent, olfactory neutral, was scented at 0.05% using methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate. It thus acquires a pleasant fruity type smell, reminiscent of that of ripe fruit.

Exemple 2Example 2

On a préparé une composition parfumante de base comme suit:

Figure imgb0006
A basic perfuming composition was prepared as follows:
Figure imgb0006

La composition de base ainsi obtenue possède une odeur de type fleuri-vert relativement peu définie. En ajoutant à 92 parties de ladite base 8 parties de 2,6,6- trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle, on confère à celle-ci une note de type "pomme verte" très caractéristique.The basic composition thus obtained has a relatively ill-defined floral-green odor. By adding to 92 parts of said base 8 parts of methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-carboxylate, this is given a very characteristic "green apple" type note.

La nouvelle composition parfumante ainsi obtenue convient particulièrement bien au parfumage de produits tels que savons ou shampoingsThe new perfuming composition thus obtained is particularly suitable for perfuming products such as soaps or shampoos

Exemple 3Example 3

On a préparé une composition parfumante de base de type "rose" comme suit:

Figure imgb0007
A basic "rose" type perfuming composition was prepared as follows:
Figure imgb0007

La base ainsi préparée possède une odeur de type "rose rouge". En ajoutant à 98 parties de ladite base 2 parties de 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yt-carboxylate de méthyle, on obtient une nouvelle composition parfumante dont l'odeur est devenue plus fraîche, plus montante et plus élégante que celle de ladite base; elle peut être maintenant définie de type "rose thé".The base thus prepared has a "red rose" odor. By adding 2 parts of methyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yt-carboxylate to 98 parts of said base, a new perfuming composition is obtained, the odor of which has become fresher and more promising. and more elegant than that of said base; it can now be defined as "tea rose".

Exemple 4Example 4

On a préparé une composition parfumante de base de type "rose" comme suit:

Figure imgb0008
A basic "rose" type perfuming composition was prepared as follows:
Figure imgb0008

Ainsi constituée, la base présente une odeur de type 'rose'. Cette odeur devient nettement plus caractéristique après addition à ladite base de 15 parties d'une solution à 0,01% de β-damascénone dans l'alcool éthylique.Thus formed, the base has a 'pink' type odor. This odor becomes clearly more characteristic after addition to said base of 15 parts of a 0.01% solution of β-damascenone in ethyl alcohol.

L'addition de 30 parties d'une solution de 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle à 0,1% dans l'alcool éthylique à la nouvelle composition ci-dessus confère à cette dernière une note de tête rosée et fruitée encore plus riche et plus montante.The addition of 30 parts of a solution of 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-methyl-carboxylate at 0.1% in ethyl alcohol to the new composition above gives to the latter a rosé and fruity top note even richer and more rising.

Exemple 5Example 5

A 688 parties de la base parfumante préparée selon l'Exemple 4 on a ajouté 15 parties d'une solution à 0,01% de β-damascone dans l'alcool éthylique, pour obtenir une composition de type "rose" très caractéristique, à l'odeur fraîche et montanteTo 688 parts of the perfume base prepared according to Example 4, 15 parts of a 0.01% solution of β-damascone in ethyl alcohol were added, to obtain a very characteristic "pink" type composition, the fresh and rising smell

L'addition de 30 parties d'une solution de 2,6,6-triméthyl-cyclohex-2-ène-1-yl-carboxylate de méthyle à 0,1% dans l'alcool éthylique à la composition ci-dessus renforce encore le côté frais, fruité et montant typique de la β-damasconeThe addition of 30 parts of a solution of 2,6,6-trimethyl-cyclohex-2-ene-1-yl-methyl carboxylate at 0.1% in ethyl alcohol to the above composition further strengthens the fresh, fruity and typical amount of β-damascone
