Description
3,5-Dimethyl-1,2-cyclopentanedione, commercially known as Coronol (FEMA 3269), is a cyclic diketone registered under EC 236-811-3. It carries no assigned E-code and is classified within the flavors and fragrances category for food-grade applications.
In food and beverage formulation, Coronol functions as a flavoring agent that contributes roasted, caramel, and coffee-like taste profiles at low use concentrations. It is applied in baked goods, confectionery, and hot beverages where its cyclic diketone structure generates characteristic Maillard-type sensory notes without requiring thermal processing.
This material is supplied as a food-grade crystalline powder compliant with FEMA 3269 designation and subject to REACH registration requirements for European supply. Procurement teams should confirm FCC compliance for food applications. Standard packaging formats for laboratory and industrial quantities are available upon request from the supplier.
