 |  | CIS-2-HEXEN-1-OL Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | colourless liquid |  | Chemical Properties | (Z)-2-Hexen-1-ol is used for a green aroma in fragrances and provides a fresher odor than trans-2-hexenol
 |  | Occurrence | Reported found in fresh and cooked apple, sour cherry, blueberry, blackcurrant, papaya, peach, French fried
potato, tomato, butter, hop oil, cognac, red and white wines, black tea. |  | Uses | cis-2-Hexen-1-ol is used in the invention of a repellent for Oryzaephilus surinamensis. |  | Aroma threshold values | Aroma characteristics at 1.0%: impacting fresh vegetative, slightly fatty with a green bean note, witch
hazel and fusel alcoholic with a whiskey nuance. |  | Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 5 to 50 ppm: green vegetative and herbal, raw green beans, tomato and potato with
a fusel winey nuance. |  | General Description | cis-2-Hexen-1-ol is a green leaf volatile (GLV) that is commonly found in herbaceous plants and angiosperm trees. In combination with other GLVs, cis-2-hexen-1-ol may disrupt the response of conifer-infesting ambrosia beetle to the host pheromone and kairomones. This ability makes it a promising candidate for the development of log protectants against ambrosia beetles. |  | Biochem/physiol Actions | Odor at 1% |
