Description

(E)-5-Tetradecen-1-Ol is a high-purity, unsaturated fatty alcohol with a defined stereochemistry. This compound serves as a valuable chemical intermediate and building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly in the fragrance and flavor industries. It is essential for manufacturers and R&D laboratories seeking to create specific aromatic compounds, pheromones, or specialty surfactants with precise structural characteristics.

Application

• Fragrance and Flavor Synthesis: A key intermediate for creating specific musky, waxy, or fatty odor notes in perfumes and flavoring agents.
• Pheromone Research and Production: Used in the development and synthesis of insect pheromones for agricultural pest management.
• Specialty Surfactants: Acts as a precursor for producing unsaturated alcohol ethoxylates with unique emulsifying and wetting properties.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Utilized in research and production for carbon chain elongation, cross-coupling reactions, and the synthesis of liquid crystals or pharmaceutical intermediates.
• Lubricant and Plasticizer Additives: Serves as an intermediate for creating esters that function as bio-based lubricants or specialty plasticizers.
