Abstract

Polyalkyl-tetralins and -indans are well known as starting materials for polycyclic musks obtained by Friedel-Crafts acylation. If, instead, such hydrocarbons are subjected to benzylic (electrochemical) oxidation, new musks are obtained. The latter are compared and discussed in view of their olfactive properties. The corresponding acetals and ketals constitute a new family of musky odorants with fruity or even powerful woody notes making them attractive to perfumers.
