There has been considerable work performed relating to substances which can be used to impart (modify, augment or enhance) fragrances to (or in) various consumable materials. These substances are used to diminish the use of natural materials some of which may be in short supply and to provide more uniform properties in the finished product.
Long-lasting, substantive and intense green, early morning forest path, sandalwood, piney, camphoraceous, geranium, rhodinol, peppery, woody, orris, orivone, sweet and grapefruit-like aromas with natural piney, green, woody, pine needle, sappy, camphoraceous, rhod inol, peppery, and orivone topnotes and "cooling" undertones are desirable in several types of perfume compositions, perfumed articles, colognes, deodorizing compositions and odor maskant materials.
The use of polycyclic alcohols and derivatives thereof such as ethers and esters for augmenting or enhancing the aroma of consumable materials including perfume compositions, perfumed articles, colognes, deodorizing articles, deodorizing compositions and malodor maskants is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,021,184 issued on Jun. 4, 1991 wherein adamantane derivatives defined according to the generic structure: ##STR4## are described for use for augmenting or enhancing the aroma of consumable materials such as perfume compositions, perfumed articles, colognes, deodorizing articles, deodorizing compositions and realodor maskants (wherein R.sub.1 ' represents hydrogen, acyl or alkyl; and R.sub.2 ' is hydrogen or lower alkyl and the dashed line is a carbon-carbon single bond or a carbon-carbon double bond ) .
Nothing in the prior art however discloses the unexpected, unobvious and advantageous organoleptic properties of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention; and the structure of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention are different in kind from the structures of the adamantane derivatives of U.S. Pat. No. 5,021,184 issued on Jun. 4, 1991.

(Conditions: Carbowax column programmed at 140.degree. C. isothermal).
Referring to FIGS. 31 and 32 in particular, the apparatus used in producing polymeric fragrances containing one or more of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.13]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention comprises a device for forming scented polyolefin (for example) pellets, which comprises a vat or container 212 into which a mixture of polyolefin such as polyethylene and an aromatic substance or scented material is placed (in this case at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention). The container is closed by an airtight lid 228 and clamped to the container by bolts 265. A stirrer 273 traverses the lid or cover 228 in airtight manner and is rotated in a suitable manner. A surrounding cylinder 212 having heating coils 212 A which are supplied with electric current through cable 224 from a rheostat or control 216 is operated to maintain a temperature inside the container 212 such that polyethylene or other thermoplastic polymer in the container will be maintained in the molten or liquid state. It has been found advantageous to employ a colorless odorless polymer (e.g., polyethylene) with viscosity ranging between 180 and 220 saybolt seconds and having a melting point in the range of 200.degree.-280.degree. F. The heater 212A is operated to maintain the upper portion of the container 212 within a temperature range of from 250.degree.-350.degree. F. The bottom portion of the container is heated by means of heating coils 212A heated through a control 220 connected thereto through a connecting wire 222 to maintain the lower portion of the container within a temperature range of from 250.degree.-350.degree. F.
Thus, polymer (e.g., polyethylene) is added to container 212 and is heated from 10-12 hours whereafter a scented aroma-imparting material (at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) is added quickly to the melt. The material must be compatible with the polyolefin and forms a homogeneous liquid melt therewith. The scented material is of a type for the particular aroma desired and formulated specifically for the scenting purpose for which the polyolefin will be employed.
Generally about 5-30% by weight of the scented material (containing at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) are added to the polyolefin.
After the scent imparting material (e.g., a composition containing at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]-non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) is added to the container 212, the mixture is stirred for a few minutes, for example, 5-15 minutes and maintained within the temperature range as indicated previously by heating coils 212A. The controls 216 and 220 are connected, respectively, through cables 214 and 222, respectively, to heating coils 212A. The said controls 216 and 220 are also connected through cables 224 and 226, respectively, to a suitable power supply of electric current for supplying the electric power to the heating coils 212A for heating purposes.
Thereafter the valve "V" is opened permitting the mass to flow outwardly through conduit 218/232 having a multiplicity of orifices 234 adjacent to the lower side thereof. The outer end of the conduit 218/232 is closed so that the liquid polymer (e.g., polyolefin) and aroma imparting material (e.g., at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) will continuously drop through orifices 234 downwardly from conduit 232. During this time the temperature of the polymer (e.g., polyethylene or polyolefin) and scent imparting material (e.g., at least one of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) is accurately controlled so that a temperature in the range of from about 210.degree.-275.degree. F. will exist in the conduit 218/232. The regulation of the temperature through the controls 216 and 220 is essential in order to insure temperature balance to provide for the continuous dropping or dripping of molten polymer (e.g., polyethylene) and scenting material (e.g., one or more of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6 -ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention) mixture through the orifices 234 at a rate which will insure the formation of droplets 236 which will fall downwardly onto a moving conveyor belt 238 caused to run between conveyor wheels 240 and 242 beneath the conduit 232.
When the droplets 236 fall onto the conveyor 238 they form pellets 244 which harden almost instantaneously and fall off the end of the conveyor 238 into a container 245 and which are utilized in processes as illustrated, infra.
A feature of this aspect of the process of our invention is the provision for moistening of the conveyor belt 238 to insure rapid formation of the solid polymeric (e.g., polyolefin) scented pellets 244 without sticking to material which will not normally stick to a melted plastic. A moistening means 248 insures a sufficiently cold temperature of the belt surface for adequate formation of the pellets 244. The adequate moistening means comprises a container 250 which is continuously fed with water 254 to maintain a level for moistening a sponge element 256 which bears against the exterior of the belt 238.
The resulting product can be formulated into deodorized or scented products such as garbage bags and the like.

Our invention also relates to processes for preparing such 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof using as a starting material the substantially pure aldehyde defined according to the structure: ##STR43## This substantially pure aldehyde may be produced according to the procedure set forth in Example I, infra, from the material having the structure: ##STR44## according to the reaction: ##STR45## which involves the reaction mechanism: ##STR46## This reaction takes place at temperatures in the range of from 180.degree. C. up to 220.degree. C. in the absence of any additional catalyst or in the presence of the catalyst, ALAMINE.RTM. 336 (trademark of the Henkel Company of Minneapolis, Minn.). ALAMINE.RTM. 336 is a mixture of tri-C.sub.8 -C.sub.10 alkyl amines and has a CAS Registery No. of 68814-95-9. It is also known as ADOGEN.RTM. 364 (trademark of Ashland Company). Its use has been previously published in U.S. Pat. No. 4,148,815 issued on Apr. 10, 1979 the disclosure for which is incorporated herein by reference.
The compound having the structure: ##STR47## is prepared according to the reaction: ##STR48## the preparation for which is exemplified in Examples I and II of U.S. Pat. No. 4,956,481 issued on Sept. 11, 1990, the specification for which is incorporated herein by reference.
Using the compound having the structure: ##STR49## as a starting material, the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention are prepared firstly by forming the compound having the structure: ##STR50## or forming the compound having the structure: ##STR51## The compound having the structure: ##STR52## is prepared by reducing the compound having the structure: ##STR53## with an appropriate reducing agent such as sodium borohydride or lithium alumminum hydride according to the reaction: ##STR54## or more specifically according to the reaction: ##STR55## The mole ratio of reducing agent:compound having the structure: ##STR56## is preferably about 0.5:1.0. The temperature of reaction is preferably between about 10.degree. C. and about 25.degree. C. The reaction preferably takes place in the presence of an inert solvent such as isopropyl alcohol.
Compounds defined according to the structure: ##STR57## wherein R.sub.2 ' represent lower alkyl such as ethyl and methyl are prepared by reacting the compound having the structure: ##STR58## with an organometallic compound R.sub.2 'M according to the reaction: ##STR59## to produce the compound having the structure: ##STR60## and then hydrolyzing the compound having the structure: ##STR61## in the presence of a weak acid such as ammonium chloride or dilute hydrochloric acid according to the reaction: ##STR62## With the above reaction sequence, M represents lithium or magnesium halo such as magnesium chloro or magnesium bromo. Thus, more specifically, methyl lithium can be reacted with the compound having the structure: ##STR63## according to the reaction: ##STR64## to produce the organolithium derivative having the structure: ##STR65## or methyl magnesium halide such as methyl magnesium chloride or methyl magnesium bromide may be reacted with the compound having the structure: ##STR66## to produce the compound having the structure: ##STR67## wherein X is chloro or bromo. The resulting product is then hydrolyzed, for example, the compound having the structure: ##STR68## is hydroyzed using dilute hydrochloric acid or aqueous ammonium chloride according to the reaction: ##STR69## in order to produce the compound having the structure: ##STR70## The compound having the structure: ##STR71## can also be reacted to form ethers defined according to the structure: ##STR72## wherein R" is C.sub.1 -C.sub.2 alkyl or alkenyl such as allyl. The reaction to form such ethers may be carried out using an alkyl or alkenyl halide and an alkali metal hydride according to the reaction: ##STR73## wherein X" is chloro, bromo or iodo and M" is alkali metal such as sodium or potassium. Such reactions may be exemplified as follows: ##STR74##
Furthermore, the compound having the structure: ##STR75## may be reacted with an acylating agent or an alkoxy acylating agent defined according to the generic structure: ##STR76## in order to form a compound having the generic structure: ##STR77## according to the reaction: ##STR78## wherein Y represents hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy and wherein z represents hydrogen, acyl or alkoxycarbonyl. Examples of such reactons are as follows: ##STR79##
Furthermore, acetals may be produced from the compound having the structure: ##STR80## by reaction thereof with alcohols and diols, for example, according to the reaction: ##STR81## wherein the compound having the structure: ##STR82## is produced.
At the end of each of the foregoing reactions the reaction mass may be appropriately "worked up", whereby the reaction mass is neutralized, the solvent evaporated and the reaction product distilled as by fractional distillation. The resulting products may be used "as is" or they may be further reacted as shown, supra.
The 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention have intense and substantive aromas which can be described as green, early morning forest path, sandalwood, piney, camphoraceous, geranium, rhodinol, peppery, woody, orris, orivone, sweet and grapefruit-like with natural piney, green, woody, pine and needle, sappy, camphoraceous, rhodinol, peppery and orivone topnotes and "cooling" undertones.

The 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention can be used to contribute powerful long-lasting green, early morning forest path, sandalwood, piney, camphoraceous, geranium, rhodinol, peppery, woody, orris, orivone, sweet and grapefruit-like aromas with natural piney, green, woody, pine needle, sappy, camphoraceous, rhodinol, peppery and orivone topnotes and "cooling" undertones to perfume compositions, perfumed articles, colognes, deodorizing articles, deodorizing compositions and malodor maskants. Examples of perfumed articles are anionic, cationic, nonionic or zwitterionic detergents, drier-added fabric softener compositions and drier-added fabric softener articles as well as hair preparations. As olfactory agents, the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention can be fomulated into or used as components of a "perfume composition" or can be used as components of a "perfumed article" or the perfume composition may be added to perfumed articles.
The term "perfume composition" is used herein to mean a mixture of organic compounds including, for example, alcohols (other than the alcohols of our invention); aldehydes; ketones, nitriles, ethers (other than the ethers of our invention), lactones, esters (other than the esters of our invention) carbonates (other than the carbonates of our invention), natural essential oils, synthetic essential oils, and frequently hydrocarbons which are admixed so that the combined odors of the individual components produce a pleasant or desired fragrance. Such perfume compositions usually contain (a) the main note or the "bouquet" or foundation stone of the composition; (b) modifiers which round off and accompany the main note; (c) fixatives which include odorous substances which lend a particular note to the perfume throughout all stages of evaporation and substances which retard evaporation; and (d) topnotes which are usually low-boiling, fresh smelling materials.
In perfume compositions, the individual component will contribute its particular olfactory characteristics, but the overall effect of the perfume composition will be the sum of the effects of each of the ingredients. Thus, the individual 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.13]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention or mixtures thereof can be used to alter the aroma characteristics of a perfume composition, for example, by highlighting or moderating the olfactory reaction contributed by another ingredient in the composition.
The amount of one or more of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]-non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention which will be effective in perfume compositions, depends on many factors including the other ingredients, their amounts, and the effects which are desired. It has been found that perfume compositions containing as little as 0.5% of one or more of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention or even less can be used to impart interesting, substantive and intense green, early morning forest path, sandalwood, piney, camphoraceus, geranium, rhodinol, peppery, woody, orris, orivone, sweet and grapefruit-like aromas with natural piney, green, woody, pine needle, sappy, camphoraceous, rhodinol, peppery and orivone topnotes and "cooling" undertones to soaps, liquid and solid anionic, cationic, nonionic and zwitterionic detergents, cosmetic powders, liquid and solid fabric softeners, optical brightener compositions, perfumed polymers and other products. The amount employed can range up to 50% or higher and will depend on considerations of cost, nature of the end product and the effect desired on the finished product and the particular fragrance sought.
The 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention can be used alone or in perfume compositions as olfactory components in detergents and soaps, space odorants and deodorants; colognes, toilet water, bath salts, hair preparations, such as lacquers, brilliantines, pomades and shampoos; cosmetic preparations such as creams, deodorants, hand lotions and sun screens; powders such as talcs, dusting powders, face powders and the like. When used as an olfactory component of a perfumed article, as little as 0.01% of one or more of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]-non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention will suffice to impart interesting, long-lasting and intense green, early morning forest path, sandalwood, piney, camphoraceous, geranium, rhodinol, peppery, woody, orris, orivone, sweet and grapefruit-like aromas with natural piney, green, woody, pine needle, sappy, camphoraceous, rhodinol, peppery and orivone topnotes and "cooling" undertones. Generally, no more than 0.5% is required.
In addition, the perfume composition can contain a vehicle or carrier for the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention taken alone or taken together with other ingredients. The vehicle can be a liquid such as an alcohol such as ethanol, a glycol such as propylene glycol or the like. The carrier can be an absorbent solid such as gum (e.g., gum arabic, guar gum and xanthan gum) or components for encapsulating the composition such as gelatin which can be used to form a capsule wall surrounding the perfume oil as by means of coacervation.
The following Example I sets forth the preparation of the precursor of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention having the structure: ##STR90## Examples II-X set forth preparation of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention. Examples XI, et seq. set forth the organoleptic uses of the 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene-3-methanol and substituted derivatives thereof of our invention prepared according to Examples II-X.
All parts and percentages given herein are by weight unless otherwise specified.
