Flavours and Fragrances

Part 1 Chemoreception and structure-activity relationships: Toward a rational structure-function analysis of odour molecules: The olfactory receptor TM4 domain; The impact of recombinant dna-technology on the flavour and fragrance industry; The design and synthesis of novel muguet materials; Aura of Aroma®: A novel technology to study the emission of fragrance from the skin; Dependence of intensity of musk odour on the energy gap between frontier molecular orbitals. Part 2 Essential oils and analytical: Derivatized cyclodextrins in enantiomer gc separation of volatiles; Production, chemistry and sensory properties of natural isolates; An odour-sensing system for use in measuring volatiles in flavours and fragrances using OCM; The aromatic resins: Their chemistry and uses; Studies towards structure determination of substituted pyrazines. Part 3 Flavours: Synthesis and odour properties of chiral fragrance chemicals; In search of nascent musks - or not; Synthesis and application of thiocarbonyl compounds; Heteropoly acids as catalysts for fine chemicals synthesis.
