Description

cis-Pinane CAS NO 6876-13-7 is a saturated bicyclic monoterpene derived from the hydrogenation of α-pinene, offering exceptional stability and a mild, woody odor profile. This high-purity intermediate is valued for its consistent quality and reliable performance in demanding synthesis and formulation processes. It serves as a critical raw material for manufacturers in the fragrance, flavor, and specialty chemical industries seeking stable and versatile terpene derivatives.

Application

• Fragrance & Flavor Industry: A key intermediate and starting material for the synthesis of high-value aroma chemicals like linalool, citronellol, and their derivatives, prized for their stability in formulations.
• Specialty Chemical Synthesis: Used as a stable building block for producing agrochemical intermediates, pharmaceutical precursors, and other fine chemicals requiring a saturated terpene backbone.
• Solvent & Carrier Applications: Employed as a high-boiling, low-odor solvent in specialty coatings, adhesives, and cleaning formulations where terpene-based solvency is advantageous.
• Research & Development: Serves as a standard and reagent in organic chemistry research, particularly in catalysis, hydrogenation studies, and the development of novel terpene-based compounds.
