Description

1-[(1,2,3,4,7,7A-Hexahydro-1,4,4,5-Tetramethyl-1,3A-Ethano-3Ah-Inden)-6-Yl]Ethanone is a high-purity, complex bicyclic ketone derivative valued for its unique structural framework. This compound serves as a critical advanced intermediate in the synthesis of sophisticated fragrance molecules and fine chemicals. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and production specialists in the flavor & fragrance, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical industries for creating novel compounds with specific olfactory or biological properties.

Application

• Fragrance Intermediate: A key building block for synthesizing novel amber, woody, and musk odorants with complex, long-lasting scent profiles.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Used as a sophisticated scaffold in medicinal chemistry for the development of new active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in central nervous system (CNS) and anti-inflammatory research.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Employed in multi-step organic synthesis to construct complex polycyclic structures for advanced material science and agrochemical applications.
• Flavor Ingredient Precursor: Acts as a precursor in the creation of complex flavoring agents where subtle, non-food grade aromatic notes are required.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Serves as a valuable reference standard and starting material for methodological development and exploration of new chemical spaces in organic synthesis.

Quality Control

Our 1-[(1,2,3,4,7,7A-Hexahydro-1,4,4,5-Tetramethyl-1,3A-Ethano-3Ah-Inden)-6-Yl]Ethanone is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing including GC, HPLC, and NMR to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request, supporting compliance with internal and international quality standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage or when opening sealed containers. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
