This invention provides oxygen or sulfur containing compounds possessing fruity, floral, or woody odors. These compounds may be used to fragrance or flavor a variety of consumer products such as tobacco products, foodstuffs, beverages, gums, mouthwashes, toothpastes, cosmetics, pharmaceutical preparations, and medicinal products. The disclosure also provides a process for the preparation of these compounds.

Sulfur containing acyclic terpenes

Novel Oxo-ionol derivatives are described which have a but-1-en-3-ol carbonate side chain. These derivatives are stable tobacco enhancers which impart a slight hay-like flavor to tobacco smoke.

Novel oxo-ionol carbonates useful as tobacco flavorants

Multimethyl cyclohexene or cyclohexane derivatives having woody, spicy, amber or violet odors are disclosed. The derivatives can be formualted into perfumes, talcs, lotions, cremes and air fresheners.

Alkyltetramethylcyclohexane derivatives and their use as perfumes

The present invention relates to novel poly-alkylated benzodioxin compounds possessing a musk-like aroma which are useful as fragrance materials. The compounds of the invention have the formula: ##STR1## where R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 are hydrogen or lower alkyl (C.sub.1 to C.sub.5), provided that the compound has no more than 18 carbon atoms. The invention provides for synthesis of a novel phenolic intermediate and synthesis of the compounds of the invention. The invention also provides fragrance compositions which utilize the compounds of the invention to modify, enhance, or impart a musk-like aroma to perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles.

Poly-alkylated benzodioxin musk compositions

Multimethyl cyclohexene or cyclohexane derivatives having woody, spicy, amber or violet odors are disclosed. The derivatives can be formulated into perfurmes, talcs, lotions, cremes and air fresheners.

Oxo-ionol carbonates

The present invention relates to novel musk compounds, useful as a fragrance materials which have the structure: ##STR1## wherein R is a methyl or ethyl. The invention also provides fragrance compositions which include the compounds, and processes for altering the organoleptic properties of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles by adding an organoleptically effective amount of the compounds.
