| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
3-Methyl-1-cyclopentadecanone has a soft, sweet, tenacious, musky odor. | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless oily liquid | [Chemical Properties]
Muscone is an odoriferous constituent
of natural musk. It is a colorless liquid with very soft, sweet, musky odor
and a perfumery, animal tonality.Numerous syntheses have been developed for its
preparation including enantioselective methods to obtain the naturally occurring
(3R)-enantiomer (l-muscone,.
Because of its excellent stability, it can be used in awide range of products to give
elegant,warm, animal notes. It is important for the reconstitution of naturalmusk. | [Chemical Properties]
Musk is secreted exclusively by the male animals of Moschus moschiferus, a
wild deer living in themountains of Nepal,Tibet, and Mongolia.Thelight yellow
secretion with a salve consistency accumulates in the abdominal pouch
and probably serves to attract the females. When the pouch is dried, the
secretion solidifies to form a brittle, brown mass with a characteristic odor.
Since several Moschus species occur, large variations exist in the quality and
specifications of musk. Hunting of the animals has been prohibited; therefore,
only small quantities ofmusk are occasionally offered at extremely high
prices. In the United States and Europe, naturalmusk is no longer used
as a fragrance ingredient. | [Occurrence]

Notclassified | [Biological Activity]
muscone is a potent anti-inflammatory agent, which has been implicated in reducing proinflammatory cytokines and end-plate degeneration [1]. muscone is a territorial releaser pheromone in moschus moschiferus. muscone is not produced by humans. muscone is animal pheromone with no effects on humans comparable to those of androstadienone [2]. (±)-muscone is an odoriferous constituent of musk, a glandular secretion originally collected from the male musk deer [3]. | [in vitro]
muscone reversed il-1β-induced upregulation of il-1β, tumor necrosis factor α, cyclooxygenase 2, inducible nitric oxide synthase, matrix metalloproteinase 13, aggrecanase 2, and nitric oxide and downregulation of col2α1 and aggrecan. in end-plate cartilage cultures, pretreatment with muscone (6.25, 12.5, 25 μmol/l) inhibited the il-1β-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 and c-jun n-terminal kinase in a dose-dependent manner [1]. | [in vivo]
in a rat model with induced intervertebral disc degeneration, muscone inhibited the expression of prostaglandin e2, 6-keto-prostaglandin f1α, il-1β, and tumor necrosis factor α and recovered the structural distortion of the degenerative disc [1]. | [storage]
