Difurfuryl Disulfide (CAS 4437-20-1): Product Overview

Difurfuryl Disulfide (C₁₀H₁₀O₂S₂) is a sulfur-containing organic compound widely utilized as a flavoring agent in food and fragrance industries. With a molecular weight of 226.32 g/mol, this pale yellow liquid emits a robust sulfurous aroma at high concentrations but transforms into nutty, roasted, or coffee-like notes when diluted.

Technical Specifications & Comparative Analysis

Key Industrial Applications

• Food Flavoring: Imparts roasted meat, coffee, or nutty aromas in processed foods, sauces, and snacks.
• Fragrance Formulation: Enhances savory notes in perfumes and cosmetic products.
• Chemical Synthesis: Serves as an intermediate in organic reactions requiring disulfide bonds.

Industry-Specific Usage Cases

Food Manufacturing

In meat processing, 0.1–0.5 ppm of Difurfuryl Disulfide replicates grilled flavors in plant-based protein products. A leading snack producer achieved a 15% sales increase by incorporating this compound into a new line of “smoky” potato chips.

Cosmetics

A European perfumery utilized trace amounts (≤0.01%) to create a bestselling unisex fragrance with caramelized undertones, complying with IFRA standards.
