Description

5-(2,3-Dimethyltricyclo[2.2.1.02,6]Hept-3-Yl)-2-Methylpent-2-En-1-Ol, Stereoisomer is a high-purity, specialized fragrance intermediate known for its unique woody and amber-like olfactory characteristics. This compound is valued for its ability to impart complex, long-lasting notes in fine perfumery and functional fragrance applications. It is primarily sought by flavor and fragrance (F&F) manufacturers and cosmetic ingredient suppliers for creating sophisticated scent profiles in premium consumer products.

Application

• Fine Fragrance Formulation: As a key intermediate for creating complex woody, amber, and musky accords in luxury perfumes, eau de toilettes, and colognes.
• Functional Fragrances: Used in the development of long-lasting scents for personal care products like soaps, shampoos, lotions, and deodorants.
• Household & Industrial Products: Incorporated into air fresheners, fabric softeners, detergents, and cleaning agents to provide stable and appealing odor profiles.
• Cosmetic Ingredients: Serves as a building block in the synthesis of specialty aroma chemicals for cosmetic applications requiring specific stereochemical purity.
• Flavor Enhancement: Potential use in trace amounts to modify or enhance certain flavor characteristics in high-end food flavorings, subject to regulatory approval.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a chiral intermediate in organic synthesis for pharmaceutical and agrochemical research due to its complex tricyclic structure.

Quality Control

Our production of this stereoisomer is governed by strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency critical for fragrance performance. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical methods including GC, HPLC, and chiral analysis to confirm purity and isomeric composition. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, optical rotation, and impurity profile to meet the exacting standards of the flavor and fragrance industry.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and is light-sensitive (store away from light). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For long-term storage, consider filling the headspace with an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon.
