The present invention is directed to 3-hexenyl-2-methylallyl ether and its use in creating perfumes and scents in such items as perfumes, colognes, toilet water and personal care products.

Allyl ether

Described are methyl substituted hexahydroindanols and alkyl ethers thereof defined according to the generic structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.7 represents hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl; wherein R.sub.1 represents methyl or ethyl; wherein R.sub.4 represents methyl or hydrogen; and wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each represents methyl or ethyl with the provisos that:

Methyl substituted hexahydroindanols and alkyl ethers thereof,

Described are 1(4'-methylpentyl)-4-substituted ethylcyclohexane derivatives defined according to the structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are the same or different hydrogen or methyl; wherein the dashed line represents a carbon carbon single bond or a carbon carbon double bond; wherein the wavy line represents a carbon carbon single bond or a carbon carbon double bond; with the proviso that when the wavy line is a carbon carbon single bond then the dashed line is a carbon carbon single bond; wherein Y represents a moiety selected from the group consisting of: ##STR2## wherein H represents hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 lower alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.2 acyl; and wherein R.sub.1 represents C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 lower alkyl with the additional proviso that when Y is the moiety: ##STR3## then the dashed line is a carbon carbon single bond, and uses thereof in augmenting, enhancing or imparting aromas in or to perfume compositions, perfumed articles and colognes. Also described are processes for producing the above-mentioned 1(4'-methylpentyl)-4-substituted ethylcyclohexane derivatives as well as intermediates used in said processes.

1(4'-methylpentyl)-4-substituted ethylcyclohexane derivatives,

Described are methyl substituted tetrahydroindane alkyl enol ethers defined according to the structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents methyl or ethyl; wherein R.sub.4 represents methyl or hydrogen; wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each represents methyl or ethyl with the provisos that:

Methyl substituted tetrahydroindane alkyl enol ethers, perfumery uses
