Abstract

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) as herein defined, capable of releasing fragrant compounds in a controlled manner into the surroundings. The present invention is also concerned with a process for their production, and consumer products comprising them.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A detergent or fabric conditioner comprising a compound of formula (I)

in which one of the dotted lines represents together with the carbon-carbon bond a double bond and each of the other two dotted lines represent together with the carbon-carbon bond a single bond,
and a compound of formula (III)

wherein the dotted lines represent a double bond located at one of the alpha-, beta- or delta- positions on each of the cyclohexene rings.

2. The detergent or fabric conditioner of claim 1 comprising the compound of formula (I) and the compound of formula (III) in a ratio of 1:40 to 40:1.

3. The detergent or fabric conditioner of claim 2 , wherein the compound of formula (I) is ethyl S-(4-oxo-4-(2′,6′,6′-trimethylcyclohex-3′-en-1′-yl) butan-2-yl) cysteinate and the compound of formula (III) is ethyl N,S-bis(4-oxo-4-(2′,6′,6′-trimethylcyclohex-3′-en-1′-yl) butan-2-yl) cysteinate.

4. The detergent or fabric conditioner of claim 1 further comprising a compound of formula (IV)

wherein the dotted lines represent a double bond located at one of the alpha-, beta- or delta-positions on each of the cyclohexene rings.

5. The detergent or fabric conditioner of claim 4 , wherein the compound of formula (IV) is ethyl N-(4-oxo-4-(2′,6′,6′-trimethylcyclohex-3′-en-1′-yl) but-2-en-2-yl)-S-(4-oxo-4-(2′,6′,6′-trimethylcyclohex-3′-en-1′-yl) butan-2-yl) cysteinate.
