Description

Isoborneol CAS NO 10385-78-1 is a high-purity, bicyclic monoterpenoid alcohol valued for its distinct camphoraceous odor and versatile chemical functionality. It serves as a critical chiral intermediate and fragrance ingredient, offering consistent quality and reliable performance for demanding industrial and fine chemical synthesis. This product is essential for manufacturers in the flavor & fragrance, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical sectors seeking a reliable source of a key terpene derivative.

Application

• Fragrance & Flavor Ingredient: Used as a key component in perfumery for its woody, camphor-like scent and in flavorings for minty nuances.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a chiral building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and therapeutic agents.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Employed as a precursor in the manufacturing of certain pesticides and herbicides.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a versatile starting material or intermediate for organic reactions, including esterification and oxidation to produce isobornyl derivatives.
• Industrial Aromatics: Incorporated into air fresheners, detergents, and household cleaning products for its persistent and fresh odor profile.
