Abstract

Compounds having formula (I) in which n is 1, 2 or 3 and R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 represent, independently, branched or unbranched, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl-, alkenyl-, alkinyl-, cycloalkyl-, cycloalkenyl- or aromatic-radicals or hydrogen wherein these radicals may in addition contain one or more --O-- and/or (a)--groups, whereby one or two rings can be built by the combination of the respective R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 and this/these ring(s) can be further substituted by an alkyl-group, in which X is either O and R.sup.7 represents a radical of an alcohol or phenol R.sup.7 OH, or X is N and R.sup.7 represents the radical of an amine R.sup.7' R.sup.7' NH, whereby R.sup.7' and R.sup.7' represent independently, branched or unbranched, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl-, alkenyl-, alkinyl-, cycloalkyl-, cycloalkenyl- or aromatic radicals or either R.sup.7' R.sup.7' may be hydrogen, whereby the amine is a fragrant amine or the amine has more than 9 C atoms, whereby R.sup.7 of the alcohol or phenol and R.sup.7' and/or R.sup.7' of the amine, respectively, may further contain at least one remaining part C(OH)R.sup.1 R.sup.2 --CR.sup.3 R.sup.4 --(CR.sup.5 R.sup.6).sub.n --CO-- of formula (I), are useful as precursors for the delivery of odoriferous and/or antibacterial compounds in cosmetic compositions, cosmetic products, air fresheners, hard surface cleaners or laundry products. ##STR1##
