The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) as properfume compounds. In particular, the present invention relates to a method to release a compound being a ketone or aldehyde of formula (II), a formate ester of formula (III) and/or an alcohol of formula (IV) by exposing the compound of formula (I) to an environment wherein it is oxidized. Moreover, the present invention relates to a perfuming composition and a perfume consumer product comprising at least one compound of formula (I).
Enantioselective construction of substituted pyridine and a seven-membered carbocyclic skeleton: biomimetic synthesis of (−)-rupestine D, (−)-guaipyridine, (−)-epiguaipyridine, and (−)-cananodine and their stereoisomers
opening of a trisubstituted epoxide for the formation of a chiral center at C-8; (ii) ring-closing metathesis for the construction of a seven-membered carbocyclic ring; and (iii) biomimetic cyclization of a 1,5-dicarbonyl compound for the construction of a pyridine-fused bicyclic skeleton.
