General description

2,3-Diethylpyrazine has been identified as one of the volatile flavor constituents in roasted coffee beans, roasted sesame seeds and baked potato.

Application


  • Comparison of pyrazines formation in methionine/glucose and corresponding Amadori rearrangement product model.: This research explores the formation of pyrazines, including 2,3-diethylpyrazine, through the reactions of methionine and glucose, providing insights into the pathways and mechanisms involved in the generation of these compounds which are crucial for food flavoring (Deng et al., 2022).
