Furaneol, or strawberry furanone, is a natural organic compound used in the flavor and perfume industry because of its sweet strawberry aroma.[2] It is actually found in strawberries[3] and a variety of other fruits and it is partly responsible for the smell of fresh pineapple.[4] It is also important for odour of buckwheat,[5] and tomato.[6]
