Structure-odor relationships
Article Abstract:
Understanding the structure-odor relationships helps to determine the fragrance of a compound and its properties. The biochemical research of olfaction reveals the identification of odorant-binding proteins and secondary messengers. Physical, sensory and physiological methods help in measuring odor. Structure-activity relationship reveals that various functional groups present in the compound are responsible for characteristic odors such as camphoraceous, bitter almond, musk, wood, ambergris and floral.
