Stereoisomeric flavour compounds. Part LVII: The stereoisomers of 3‐Oxo‐p‐menthane‐8‐thiol acetate, simultaneously stereoanalysed with their corresponding thiols

The stereoisomers of 3‐oxo‐p‐menthane‐8‐thiol acetate have been synthesized by acetylation of optically pure stereoisomers of 8‐mercapto‐p‐menthan‐3‐one. The stereoisomers were identified by 1 H/ 13 C‐NMR spectroscopy and CGC‐MS. Their sensory properties are described. Their chirospecific analysis is reported simultaneously with the stereoisomers of their corresponding thiols using selectivity adjusted enantioselective capillary gas chromatography with octakis(2,3‐di‐ O ‐acetyl‐6‐ O ‐ tert ‐butyldimethylsilyl)‐γ‐cyclodextrin as the chiral stationary phase.
