Product Overview
2,4-Dimethyl-5-acetyl thiazole (CAS 38042-93-2, FEMA 3281) is a high-value sulfur-containing heterocyclic flavor monomer. It naturally exists in roasted nuts, cocoa, coffee and baked grain foods. It delivers rich, powerful roasted nut, cocoa, popcorn and slightly meaty earthy aroma notes. Compared with ordinary thiazole monomers with single flavor layers, it creates fuller, warmer and more authentic roasted sensory effects. For this reason, flavorists widely adopt this ingredient as a core base material for nutty, roasted and savory flavor compounding.
Physical & Chemical Properties
2,4-Dimethyl-5-acetyl thiazole presents as a colorless to pale yellow clear liquid under normal temperature. It owns a stable boiling point and moderate flash point, and maintains steady physical properties under conventional processing environments. It mixes freely with ethanol, propylene glycol and various edible oils, while it shows low solubility in water. Furthermore, it boasts excellent thermal stability and retains stable aroma performance during baking, high-temperature extrusion and other common food processing procedures.
Basic Specifications
Molecular Formula: C₇H₉NOS
Molecular Weight: 155.21 g/mol
Purity (GC): ≥98.0%
Core Flavor Applications
This flavor monomer features unique warm roasted and nutty aroma characteristics that adapt to diverse food formulation scenarios. First of all, flavor technicians apply it heavily in roasted nut, cocoa, chocolate and popcorn flavor bases to enrich rich roasted and sweet nutty layers. Additionally, it complements bakery products, confectionery and dessert formulas to enhance warm baked fragrance. Moreover, formulators add it into savory seasonings, snack flavors and reaction flavors to build deep earthy and roasted background notes.
Recommended Dosage
Manufacturers apply a standard dosage of 0.02–1 ppm in finished food products. Since different formulas feature different flavor orientations and carrier attributes, flavor developers can adjust the addition dosage flexibly to fit personalized formulation needs and target sensory effects.
