Making raspberry perfume

  • In this video, I get a bit back into making compounds with odors and scents. I chose to make perfume with Raspberry Ketone, because I thought it was an interesting molecule and the synthesis seemed fun. However, in the future, I think I'm going to venture into the territory of nasty smelling compounds. For some reason, I enjoy the suffering that they bring.

      At least the actual perfume part is pretty simple. Getting any unique compound to make it out of is the difficult part. It's definitely a nice gift for sentiment, but not very practical.

    • @catc8927
      @catc8927 2 ปีที่แล้ว +275

      The bar itself is just a magnet coated in Teflon. The spinning motion comes from a spinning magnet in the hot plate underneath that it lines up with when you toss it in. My favorite part of stir bars is how you can easily fish them out using another bigger magnet.

    As someone who has watched nearly every one of niles videos, I gotta say I found out why I love him. He doesn’t explain what he knows he doesn’t have to. You don’t know a smack of chemistry? He says just enough to both entertain and enthrall. You know chemistry? You’re probably either cringing at a result or right there along with him, probably able to guess what he will have to do next. His videos are catered to either side of the coin at once and it’s remarkable.

    My mom introduced me to chemistry at age 8 to encourage any and all of my interests. So I asked her to show me how to make a stink bomb! No problem, all that was required was iron and sulphur.
    Since you mention stinky 'perfumes' this is derived from the rotten egg smell. The yoke contains sulphur, and oxidation with iron results in FeS. (En Français Fesses translates to A$$). And this is how every year she would introduce me to yet another discipline. (She was a University Professor). At 7, biology, at 8 Chemistry, at 9 Electronics. And the rest is history.

      It's a good quote, but in the context of the video, at the end he disproves his quote. He doesn't achieve anything close to the raspberry smell he was looking for after all that work. It is far easier to simply grow raspberries. Obviously corporation and labs can do quite a bit more, but just like nature's evolutions, that science took centuries (and longer) to develop.

      If you add Isoamyl Acetate (ester found in bananas and pears) and Vanillin, as well as a spicier top note (such as bergamot), you'd have a well-balanced and sweet perfume that would be cheap to manufacture, and last a while when applied. The end resulting perfume should evoke such a generic "pleasant" response, that it wouldn't have to be any particular season to get full mileage out of it. In fact, it would be the kind of fragrance that would also serve well in body wash or laundry detergent. Two additional variants to this base could veer it into additional applications: 1. A small amount of jasmine extract would smooth it all out and make a wonderful scent for women's deodorant; 2. Instead of jasmine, adding cardamom extract would make an excellent scent for lotion, as the high volatility of cardamom could carry the end scent through the muddling that a lotion base provides. Basically, any kind of scent which is notable but vague, is perfect to build a scent base around, as it guarantees a specific quality (sweetness in this case) that will always show through even as other scents are layered on top (as long as you don't overdo it). Castoreum also fits this description (sweet, mildly nutty), as does moss (woody, earthy). Perfumery is such an interesting study and hobby...at least to me.

    When I was but a wee las, my family had a peach tree in the back yard. Mid-late summer would come and I'd collect all the peach pits off the ground from the fruit that never got picked. Then I'd smash them open to get the tiny seed inside and mash them up with some water to make it smell like almonds. I now know I was straight up snorting cyanide as a kid.

This is what amateur chemistry is all about! One wants the perfect mix of ambient and chemicals, what is pretty hard to get when you are a common guy like him, you or me. He is already "lucky" to be able to buy things from Sigma, he must have his "contacts" if you know what I mean since they only sell to corporations.

      um the hydroxy was for the -OH group, its an IUPAC rule the aldehydes are given higher preference in comparison to alcohol group when both the functional groups are in the same molecule.
      So the -OH is on the 4th carbon of the benzene ring (starting counting from the carbon of benzene ring with aldehyde group attached)
      so we get 4- Hydroxy benzaldehyde (hope this helps)
