Abstract
The synthesis and odour properties of the new santalol analogue, methy l-beta-santalol, are described. The additional methyl group adjacent t o the hydroxyl function of the standard molecule, beta-santalol, depri ves the new compound of the sandalwood note. The synthesis and the odo ur evaluation of this compound supports the proposed model for sandalw ood fragrance as it shows that the methyl group located at the osmopho ric center prevents association of the molecule with the hypothetical receptor.
