Chemistry:Filbertone
From HandWiki
Filbertone is the principal flavor compound of hazelnuts.[1] It is used in perfumery and is designated as generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food products.[2]
Because filbertone is found in hazelnut oil, its presence can be used to detect the adulteration of olive oil with less expensive hazelnut oil.[3][4]
The natural compound is a mixture of both enantiomers, and its composition can vary depending on the source.[5][6] Whilst the aroma of the racemate is described as "hazelnut, nutty",[7] the dextro enantiomer (+)-(E,S)-filbertone is described as "hazelnut, metallic, fatty, nutty"[8] and the laevo enantiomer (-)-(E,R)-filbertone is "hazelnut, soft, buttery, chocolate, metallic, nutty".[9]
