Description

Allyl Tiglate is an unsaturated ester known for its unique organoleptic properties and reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in specialty chemical synthesis. This compound matters for its ability to impart specific flavor and fragrance notes and serve as a building block for more complex molecules. Industries that need it include flavor and fragrance manufacturing, agrochemical production, and polymer research, where its allylic and α,β-unsaturated ester functionalities are exploited.

Application

• Flavor and Fragrance Ingredient: Used as a key component in creating fruity, green, or wine-like aroma profiles for perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavorings.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly in Diels-Alder reactions and Michael additions due to its conjugated double bond system.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Employed in the research and development of certain pesticides and herbicides, leveraging its reactive ester group.
• Polymer Modification: Acts as a co-monomer or cross-linking agent in the production of specialty polymers and resins to introduce specific functional groups.
• Research & Development: Utilized in academic and industrial laboratories for studying reaction mechanisms and developing new synthetic methodologies.

Quality Control

Our Allyl Tiglate is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for each lot, detailing key parameters such as identity, assay, and impurity profiles. While not typically a compendial item, our quality standards align with industry best practices for fine chemicals and flavor/fragrance ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C (refrigerated) for optimal shelf life.
