Description

δ-Muurolene CAS NO 120021-96-7 is a high-purity sesquiterpene hydrocarbon, valued for its unique woody and ambery olfactory characteristics. This compound is essential for creating sophisticated, naturalistic fragrance profiles and serves as a key intermediate in fine chemical synthesis. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the flavor and fragrance (F&F) industry, as well as by research and development laboratories focused on terpene chemistry and natural product extraction.

Application

• Fragrance Formulation: A key ingredient in premium perfumes, colognes, and personal care products for imparting warm, woody, and amber base notes.
• Flavor Enhancement: Used in complex flavor compositions to add subtle earthy and spicy nuances, particularly in gourmet applications.
• Aromatherapy & Wellness: Incorporated into essential oil blends and diffuser products for its grounding aromatic properties.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a valuable starting material or building block in the organic synthesis of more complex fragrance molecules and pharmaceuticals.
• Research & Development: Utilized as an analytical standard and in academic or industrial research studying sesquiterpene biosynthesis, properties, and applications.
• Household & Industrial Products: Adds a pleasant, natural scent to high-end cleaning agents, detergents, and air fresheners.
