Description

Pseudo Phytol CAS NO 70851-60-4 is a high-purity isoprenoid alcohol, a key isomer of phytol, valued for its role as a versatile chiral intermediate and building block in organic synthesis. Its structural similarity to natural phytol makes it a critical material for the research and development of fine chemicals, including fragrances, flavors, and advanced pharmaceutical compounds. This product is essential for R&D laboratories and manufacturers in the fragrance, flavor, and life science industries seeking a reliable, high-quality synthetic precursor.

Application

• Fragrance and Flavor Synthesis: Serves as a key chiral intermediate in the production of high-value aroma chemicals and flavoring agents.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the research and synthesis of complex organic molecules for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Vitamin and Cosmetic Ingredient Precursor: Acts as a building block in the synthesis of vitamins (e.g., Vitamin E, K) and cosmetic actives.
• Organic Synthesis & Chemical Research: A valuable reagent for stereoselective synthesis and methodological studies in academic and industrial R&D.
• Agrochemical Intermediates: Employed in the development of advanced, targeted agrochemicals.

Quality Control

Our Pseudo Phytol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical properties, and test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat and open flame.
