Vanillin is an organic compound with the molecular formula C 8 H 8 O 3. It is a phenolic aldehyde. Its functional groups include aldehyde, hydroxyl, and ether. It is the primary component of the extract of the vanilla bean. Synthetic vanillin is now used more often than natural vanilla extract as a flavoring in foods, beverages, and ...
Synthetic essence consists of a solution of synthetic vanillin in ethanol. The chemical compound vanillin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde) is a major contributor to the characteristic flavor and aroma of real vanilla and is the main flavor component of cured vanilla beans. [38] Vanillin was first isolated from vanilla pods by Gobley in 1858. [39]
ortho-Vanillin (2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde) is an organic solid present in the extracts and essential oils of many plants. [1] [2] [3] Its functional groups include aldehyde, ether and phenol. ortho-Vanillin, a compound of the formula C 8 H 8 O 3, is distinctly different from its more prevalent isomer, meta-vanillin.
Compounds containing a vanillyl group are called vanilloids, and include vanillin, vanillic acid, capsaicin, vanillylmandelic acid, etc. [1] [2 This organic chemistry article is a stub . You can help Wikipedia by expanding it .
A number of vanilloids, most notably capsaicin, bind to the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) receptor, an ion channel which naturally responds to noxious stimuli such as high temperatures and acidic pH. [1]
Vanillin crystals. Reimer's reaction, as Tiemann theorized, had made possible for the first time a convenient and cheap synthesis of Vanillin by reacting Guaiacol with Chloroform - as opposed to using the inefficient Vanillin plant, which is and was 300 times more expensive.
It is native to Mexico and northern South America, [3] and is one of the sources for vanilla flavouring, due to its high vanillin content. Vanilla pompona found in the Peruvian Amazon has been tested using HPLC analysis showing a concentration of vanillin content up to 9.88g/100g [4] making it suitable for the food or cosmetic industry.
