Description

9-Decen-1-ol is a valuable terminal olefinic alcohol with a ten-carbon chain, offering a unique combination of a reactive double bond and a primary hydroxyl group. This bifunctionality makes it a versatile intermediate for synthesizing a wide range of specialty chemicals, including fragrances, flavors, and performance polymers. It is particularly sought after by manufacturers in the fragrance and flavor, agrochemical, and polymer industries for creating complex molecules with specific olfactory, biological, or material properties.

Application

• Fragrance and Flavor Intermediate: A key building block for the synthesis of musks, floral, and fruity aroma chemicals due to its ability to form esters and undergo cyclization reactions.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of pheromones and other bioactive compounds for crop protection products.
• Polymer Modification: Serves as a comonomer or chain transfer agent to introduce unsaturated sites or hydroxyl functionality into polymers, modifying their properties.
• Lubricant Additive Precursor: Employed in the synthesis of specialty esters that act as synthetic lubricants or performance-enhancing additives.
• Surface Active Agent Production: Acts as a hydrophobic chain in the synthesis of non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Utilized in various organic reactions, including metathesis, hydroformylation, and epoxidation, to create complex organic molecules for research and fine chemicals.

Quality Control

Our 9-Decen-1-ol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including Gas Chromatography (GC) for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing the results for key parameters such as assay, identity, and specific impurities is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability to minimize polymerization or oxidation of the double bond. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and contamination.
