Product Description:
Furfuryl mercaptan is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with an intensely strong and characteristic aroma, famously recognized as the primary aroma compound of roasted coffee. It is a furan derivative featuring a mercaptan (thiol) functional group.
Its unique scent profile includes notes of coffee, roasted, sulfurous, and smoky. Due to its potent aroma, even at very low concentrations, Furfuryl mercaptan is a highly valued ingredient in the flavor and fragrance industry. It is sparingly soluble in water but readily miscible with most organic solvents.
Key Applications:
Flavor Industry:?Absolutely critical for imparting authentic roasted coffee flavor to a wide range of food and beverage products, including coffee essences, instant coffee, baked goods, confectionery, and dairy products.
Fragrance Industry:?Used in perfumery to introduce warm, roasted, coffee, or smoky notes in fine fragrances, candles, and other scented products.
Food Additive:?Employed as a food flavoring agent to enhance and define the roasted or savory profile of various processed foods.
Organic Synthesis:?Can serve as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of other sulfur-containing organic compounds, although its primary use is in flavor and fragrance.
Research & Development:?Used in analytical chemistry to study the complex chemistry of roasted foods and beverages, especially coffee aroma formation.
