Description

2-Acetyl-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydropyridine Hydrochloride is a high-purity organic salt compound, recognized for its role as a key flavor and fragrance intermediate. Its value lies in its ability to impart characteristic roasted, nutty, and popcorn-like notes, which are essential for creating authentic and complex flavor profiles. This material is primarily needed by flavor and fragrance manufacturers, food technologists, and research laboratories developing products for the food, beverage, and fine fragrance industries.

Application

• As a key flavoring agent in savory snacks, roasted nuts, coffee, and meat flavor formulations.
• As a fragrance ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics to add warm, roasted nuances.
• As a critical intermediate in the synthesis of more complex flavor and aroma chemicals.
• In food science research for studying Maillard reaction products and flavor generation.
• For use in seasoning blends and processed foods requiring authentic roasted characteristics.
• As a reference standard in analytical laboratories for quality control and flavor analysis.

Quality Control

Our 2-Acetyl-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydropyridine Hydrochloride is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC and GC analysis, to ensure high purity and consistent performance for flavor and fragrance applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
