摘要

The flavor of a foodstuff is altered by use of one of the four compounds, the structure of which is one of the configurations of 3((2-mercapto-1-methylpropyl) thio)-2-butanol represented by the structures: Each of these configurations produced by the process described herein, of reacting either a cis or trans 2,3 butane episulfide with an "erythro" or "threo" 2-hydroxy-3-mercapto butane, represented by the structures:
