Description

(E)-5-Decen-1-Yl Acetate is a high-purity, unsaturated fatty alcohol ester characterized by its specific cis-trans configuration. This compound is valued for its role as a key intermediate and building block in the synthesis of complex organic molecules, particularly in the fragrance and flavor industry. It is essential for manufacturers and R&D laboratories seeking to create specific olfactory profiles or advanced chemical products.

Application

• Fragrance & Flavor Industry: A crucial intermediate for synthesizing complex aroma chemicals, contributing to fruity, green, or waxy olfactory notes in fine perfumes and consumer products.
• Organic Synthesis: Serves as a versatile building block in organic chemistry for creating pheromones, insect attractants, and other biologically active compounds.
• Chemical Research: Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying reaction mechanisms involving unsaturated esters and for developing new synthetic methodologies.
• Specialty Chemicals: A precursor in the production of surfactants, plasticizers, and other specialty esters where a specific carbon chain length and unsaturation are required.

Quality Control

Our (E)-5-Decen-1-Yl Acetate is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis (GC/HPLC) and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets exacting standards for chemical intermediates. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, isomeric composition, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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). Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere to maintain optimal stability.
