Contents and compositions of the aroma in “Wasanbon” sugar was written by Matsui, Toshiyuki;Kitaoka, Shozaburo. And the article was included in Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology in 1981.Recommanded Product: 15399-05-0 This article mentions the following:
Wasanbon sugar which is handmade sugar manufactured traditionally in Japan by a unique refining procedure, is used in the making of Japanese traditional confectionery. The contents and compositions of the aroma in Wasanbon sugar and refinery final molasses were determined by column chromatog., gas chromatog., mass spectrometry, and sensory evaluation. The samples are the first press-off molasses (Ara-mitsu molasses), refinery final molasses, Shiroshita sugar (pre-refined sugar), and Wasanbon sugar. In the acidic fraction, the aroma of 3-phenylpropionic acid [501-52-0] was similar to the stored aroma of Wasanbon sugar, whereas the aroma of its Me ester [103-25-3] was not. Aroma substance content of the weakly acidic fraction in Wasanbon sugar and refinery final molasses were 8.5 – 8.7% of those of the acidic fraction, and their main components were cyclotene [80-71-7] and maltol, [118-71-8] formed by thermal degradation of sugar. These components had higher aroma scores than other weakly acidic fraction aromas, by a paired preference test. Cyclotene and maltol increased about 3.7 and 1.5 times, resp., during heating of Shiroshita sugar. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Ethyl 2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate (cas: 15399-05-0Recommanded Product: 15399-05-0).
Ethyl 2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate (cas: 15399-05-0) belongs to esters. Carboxylic acid esters of low molecular weight are colourless, volatile liquids with pleasant odours, slightly soluble in water. Liquid esters of low volatility serve as softening agents for resins and plastics. Esters also include many industrially important polymers. Polymethyl methacrylate is a glass substitute sold under the names Lucite and Plexiglas; polyethylene terephthalate is used as a film (Mylar) and as textile fibres sold as Terylene, Fortrel, and Dacron.Recommanded Product: 15399-05-0
