Product Overview
Raspberry ketone (P-Hydroxyphenyl butanone) is an organic compound with the formula C10H12O2 and a molecular weight of 164.22. It appears as white needle-like or granular crystals with a raspberry and sweet fruity aroma. It is stable at room temperature and pressure, and is the main aromatic component in raspberries. It is primarily used as a flavor enhancer in foods and fragrances in cosmetics and soaps.
Raspberry Ketone Production Process
Natural Raspberry Ketone Extraction and Synthesis: Due to increasing environmental awareness, the market prefers natural flavor products. Natural raspberry ketone is obtained through extraction, decolorization, concentration, and refinement of raspberries. Synthetic methods involve Claisen-Schmidt reaction, selective hydrogenation, and demethylation, with a total yield of 75.75% (based on dill aldehyde) and purity of 98.65%.
Synthetic Raspberry Ketone: With rising global demand and the high cost of natural raspberry ketone, synthetic production from petrochemical sources is more common. It is synthesized from p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and acetone or phenol and methyl vinyl ketone using acidic catalysts and ion liquids.
