Description

1-Nonen-3-Ol is a nine-carbon unsaturated alcohol characterized by a double bond and a hydroxyl group, offering a unique chemical structure for synthesis and formulation. This compound serves as a valuable intermediate and flavor/fragrance ingredient, prized for its ability to impart specific green, waxy, or melon-like olfactory notes. It is essential for manufacturers in the flavor & fragrance, cosmetic, and fine chemical synthesis industries seeking to develop complex aromatic profiles or specialized organic molecules.

Application

• Flavor and Fragrance (F&F) Industry: A key component in creating and enhancing fragrance accords for perfumes, colognes, and personal care products, contributing green, waxy, or fatty nuances.
• Food Flavoring: Used as a flavoring agent to impart or modify tastes and aromas in food products, often contributing to melon, cucumber, or other fresh fruit profiles.
• Cosmetic Formulations: Incorporated into lotions, creams, and other cosmetic products as a functional fragrance ingredient.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a versatile chemical building block or chiral intermediate in organic synthesis for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials.
• Aroma Chemical Production: Serves as a starting material or modifier in the synthesis of other, more complex aroma chemicals.
• Research and Development: Utilized in R&D laboratories for studying olfactory receptors, chemical reactions of unsaturated alcohols, and new application development.

Quality Control

Our 1-Nonen-3-Ol is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through advanced analytical techniques including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Infrared Spectroscopy (IR). A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, isomer content, and physical parameters is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

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