Chemical Structure

Basic Info
Watermelon Ketone is also called Watermelon Ketone (in English) and is a solid that’s white to light yellow at room temperature. It has a good water solubility. Watermelon Ketone, a flavor compound, has a unique smell and is used to flavor food, detergents, medicine and other products. It can also be used to produce citrus and floral scents. This substance is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as a chemical reagent. It has some applications in basic chemical science.
Watermelon ketone has a structure that contains two ether bonds and a structure called a ketocarbonyl. It also exhibits good chemical conversion characteristics. Its structure contains an ether bond that can be broken under acidic conditions. The presence of a ketocarbonyl group also allows it to react nucleophilically with Grignard reagents, resulting in tertiary alcohols. To ensure the unique aroma and chemical stability of this substance, it should be stored at low temperatures (2-8 degrees).

1. Food industry
Essence additive
Watermelon ketone is a key component of watermelon essence, which is used in beverages (such as juice and soda), candy, ice cream, yogurt and other foods to provide fresh and sweet fruit flavor.
Features: Low threshold (0.1-1 ppb), a small amount can produce significant aroma.
Alternative: Often compounded with other esters (such as ethyl acetate) to enhance the layered fruity aroma.
Flavor enhancer
With strawberry, citrus and other essence, it can simulate the complex fruit flavor and be used to make up for the lack of sweetness in low sugar or sugar free foods.
