FLAVOUR

Many wouldn’t know that natural vanilla is one of the most labour-intensive food on earth which not only makes it an expensive flavour but also scarce. Since access to natural vanilla is restricted, chemical manufacturers took to developing nature-identical vanilla such as vanillin which is food-safe. Seeing the huge potential in nature-identical vanillin, it was introduced in the food and fragrance industry. Expectedly, it got widely used and accepted by flavour manufacturers making it an indispensable, safe raw material in the food additive industry.

Vanesse (pure vanillin) spellbinds you with its rich flavour. Whether you are looking for the sweetest, creamiest notes or a lingering, satisfying fragrance, Vanesse can fulfill both. Carefully developed using Camlin Fine Sciences' efficient, environment-friendly process, Vanesse, our pure vanillin, matches the global standards of safety and quality. It’s a silent ingredient in your flavour creation that gives your comfort and flexibility to keep on innovating.

Your taste buds will thank you when you choose Vanesse. Trust us for a lifetime companionship.

Celebration is an expression of happiness and nothing expresses it better than food. Ethyl Vanillin or EVANIL, a potent flavoring with its many shades keeps the spirit alive, making people smile, bond and spread the laughter.

A more concentrated flavor profile compared to vanillin gives character to your food. It offers a distinct advantage to certain applications like chocolates giving desired aromatic notes. Evanil produced through the Catechol route is one of the most favored routes of synthesis.

Catechol, also known as pyrocatechol or 1,2-dihydroxybenzene, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H4(OH)2. It is the ortho isomer of the three isomeric benzenediols. Catechol is available as flakes and 85% solution in solvents. It is produced industrially by the hydroxylation of phenol using hydrogen peroxide.

C6H5OH + H2O2 → C6H4(OH)2 + H2O

Applications:
- Used largely in the production of pesticides
-Used as a precursor to fine chemicals such as perfumes and pharmaceuticals.
- Several flavours and fragrances are prepared starting from catechol.
- Piperonal, a flowery scent, is prepared from the methylene diether of catechol
- Vanillin, a flavour and fragrance component is synthetically produced using Catechol. CFS uses environment-friendly process to manufacture it. Vanillin produced through this route is safe for food applications.
- Used in production of ethylvanillin, a component of chocolate confectioneries.
- Used for replacing sandalwood oil
- Guaiacol is prepared by methylation of catechol

Name: Guethol
Chemical Name: 2-Ethoxyphenol
Synonym: o-Ethoxyphenol
Cas no.: 94-71-3
Molecular Formula: C8H10O2
Molecular Weight: 138.166 g/mol

Guethol is an aromatic ether in which one of the hydroxy groups has been alkylated to give the corresponding ethyl ether. It is a volatile organic compound and a member of phenols. It derives from a catechol and has a role as a flavouring agent.

4-tert-Butylcatechol (TBC)
IUPAC name: 4-tert-Butylbenzene-1,2-diol
CAS Number: 98-29-3
Molecular Formula: C10H12O2
Molecular Weight: 166.22 g/mol


4-Tert-butyIcatechoI is an organic chemical compound obtained by the butylation of Catechol using Isobutene gas. TBC is available in off-white to amber coloured crystalline solid or flakes. It is mainly used as a polymerization inhibitor or a stabilizer for polymerizable monomers.

TBC is available in different forms such as Flakes, 85% in Water, 85% in Methanol etc. The use of these in production, transportation or storage of monomers depends on its solubility in a particular monomer. The concentration of TBC in monomers varies from one another, in order to inhibit the polymerization.

TBC is harmful to human health, in contact with skin or if swallowed. It is corrosive and causes severe skin burns and eye damage. It may cause an allergic skin reaction. TBC may have a very toxic and long lasting effect to aquatic life.
