General description
2-Methylisoborneol (2-MIB) is a semi-volatile compound, responsible for the undesirable earthy-musty odor in surface water. It can be efficiently degraded by TiO2 photocatalysis. 2-MIB can also be easily adsorbed on granular activated carbon.
Application
2-Methylisoborneol can be used as a reactant:
- To prepare N-[(1R,2R,4R)-1,4,7,7-tetramethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]acetamide by reacting with acetonitrile in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate.
- In the enantioselective total synthesis of geissoschizine as well as geissoschizol.
Other Notes
Fungal metabolite which contributes to the earthy odor in public water supplies.
Disclaimer
Supply conditions do not apply to the regions and states of Brazil: North, Northeast, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, and Rio Grande do Sul.
