| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Isoeugenyl ethyl ether has an odor similar to isoeugenol. Prepared
from isoeugenol by boiling with ethyl p-toluenesulfonate. | [Chemical Properties]
Isoeugenyl ethyl ether has an odor similar to isoeugenol. | [Uses]
Ethylisoeugenol is a prenylated dehydrozingerone analog, a potent potential chemopreventive agent for cancer. | [Application]
2-methoxy-4-prop-1-enylphenetole is an excellent sweetener, stable in soap, and it does not discolour in cosmetic preparations as easily as Eugenol, Vanillin, etc. 2-methoxy-4-prop-1-enylphenetole may meanwhile become a popular fragrance chemical for its very pleasant effect and great tenacity. It blends very well with Oakmoss, Ylang, Methylionones, Patchouli, Coumarins, etc. However, cosmetic skin research is very concerned about the Propenyl group, which is accused of being a hazard to the human skin, which would bring Eugenolderivatives under the limelight and possibly ban them from use in cosmetic fragrances.
