First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A compound selected from the group consisting of 11-hydroxy-4,8-dimethyldodec-4-enal; 10-hydroxy-4,8-dimethylundec-4-enal; and a mixture thereof. 2. A fragrance formulation comprising an olfactory acceptable amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 11-hydroxy-4,8-dimethyldodec-4-enal; 10-hydroxy-4,8-dimethylundec-4-enal; and a mixture thereof; and a buffering agent; wherein the fragrance formulation has a pH range of from 5 to 11. 3. The fragrance formulation of claim 2 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 10 −6 to about 50 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 4. The fragrance formulation of claim 2 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 10 −4 to about 25 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 5. The fragrance formulation of claim 2 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 0.01 to about 10 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 6. The fragrance formulation of claim 2 further comprising a polymer. 7. The fragrance formulation of claim 6 , wherein the polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyacrylate, polyurea, polyurethane, polyacrylamide, polyester, polyether, polyamide, poly(acrylate-co-acrylamide), starch, silica, gelatin and gum Arabic, alginate, chitosan, polylactide, poly(melamine-formaldehyde), poly(urea-formaldehyde) and a combination thereof. 8. The fragrance formulation of claim 2 , wherein the buffering agent is selected from the group consisting of an acetate buffer, an alkylamine buffer, an aminoethyl alcohol buffer, an ammonium buffer, an arginine buffer, a barbiturate buffer, a borate buffer, a carbonate buffer, a citrate buffer, an ethylenediamine buffer, a gluconate buffer, a glutamate buffer, a glycine buffer, a glycyl glycine buffer, an imidazole buffer, a lactate buffer, a malate buffer, a phosphate buffer, a pyridine buffer, a tartrate buffer, a tris buffer, a triethanolamine buffer, and a mixture thereof. 9. A method of improving, enhancing or modifying a fragrance formulation comprising the step of adding to the fragrance formulation an olfactory acceptable amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 11-hydroxy-4,8-dimethyldodec-4-enal; 10-hydroxy-4,8-dimethylundec-4-enal; and a mixture thereof; and a buffering agent; wherein the fragrance formulation has a pH range of from 5 to 11. 10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 10-6 to about 50 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 10″ 4 to about 25 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the olfactory acceptable amount is from about 0.01 to about 10 weight percent of the fragrance formulation. 13. A fragrance product containing the compound of claim 1 . 14. The fragrance product of claim 13 , wherein the fragrance product is selected from the group consisting of a perfume, a cologne, toilet water, a personal care product, a cleaning product, a bar soap, a liquid soap, a shower gel, a foam bath, a cosmetic preparation, a skin care product, a hair care product, a deodorant, an antiperspirant, a feminine care product, a baby care product, a family care product, a fabric product, an air care product, a fragrance delivery system, a cleaning agent, a disinfectant, a washing agent, a dental and oral hygiene product, a health care and nutritional product and a food product. 15.
