摘要: The enantiomers R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone are the organoleptic constituents in oil of spearmint caraway, respectively. Their odor distinctiveness has been unambiguously demonstrated by chemical interconversion, independent synthesis, resolution. Odor differences between other chiral isomers were also firmly established.
