A compound of Formula A:
- wherein n represents an integer of 0-4;
- R represents a substituent in any position of the benzene ring and is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, a C1-C4 alkyl group and —OR′, wherein R′ is a C1-C4 alkyl group;
- and
- X represents C or N.
A flavor composition comprising an olfactory acceptable amount of a compound of Formula A:
- wherein n represents an integer of 0-4;
- R represents a substituent in any position of the benzene ring and is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, a C1-C4 alkyl group and —OR′, wherein R′ is a C1-C4 alkyl group;
- and
- X represents C or N.
