Description

(2E,6E)-Nona-2,6-Dienyl Acetate is a high-purity, unsaturated aliphatic ester valued for its characteristic green, fruity, and waxy aroma profile. This compound is a key building block and fragrance ingredient, prized for its ability to impart natural, fresh top notes in sophisticated scent formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the flavors and fragrances (F&F) industry, particularly for creating perfumes, personal care products, and fine fragrances that require a complex, natural olfactory character.

Application

• Fine Fragrance & Perfumery: A core component for creating fresh, green, and fruity top notes in luxury perfumes, eaux de toilette, and colognes.
• Personal Care Products: Used in scented soaps, shower gels, shampoos, lotions, and deodorants to provide a clean, natural aroma.
• Household & Air Care: Incorporated into formulations for fabric softeners, detergents, and air fresheners to deliver a pleasant, diffusive freshness.
• Flavor Enhancers: Employed in trace amounts to impart or enhance fruity and melon-like nuances in certain food flavorings (where regulatory approved).
• Aroma Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a valuable chemical intermediate for the synthesis of more complex fragrance molecules.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Bases: Adds a stable, long-lasting scent character to various cosmetic bases and toiletry preparations.

Quality Control

Our (2E,6E)-Nona-2,6-Dienyl Acetate is produced and tested to meet the stringent requirements of the fragrance industry. Quality is assured through rigorous in-process and final batch testing via GC, GC-MS, and organoleptic evaluation. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, isomer content, and olfactory profile is provided with every shipment to ensure consistency and performance in your formulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 15-25°C. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation of quality and to minimize headspace in partially used containers.
