Description

cis-6-Nonen-1-ol is a high-purity, unsaturated fatty alcohol characterized by its distinct green, melon-like aroma. This compound is a valuable intermediate and fragrance ingredient prized for its ability to impart fresh, natural olfactory notes. It is essential for manufacturers in the flavors and fragrances, cosmetics, and fine chemical synthesis industries seeking to create sophisticated, nature-identical scent profiles.

Application

• Fragrance Formulation: A key component in perfumes, colognes, and personal care products for its fresh, green, and melon-like top notes.
• Flavor Enhancement: Used in the creation of complex flavor profiles for food and beverage products, contributing fruity and fresh nuances.
• Cosmetic Ingredients: Incorporated into lotions, creams, and soaps as a fragrance component and emollient precursor.
• Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a versatile chiral building block and intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules, including pheromones and pharmaceuticals.
• Aroma Chemicals Production: A starting material for the manufacture of other high-value aroma chemicals and esters.
• Functional Fluids & Lubricants: Potential use as a base or additive in specialty lubricants due to its oleochemical structure.
