Description

Eugenyl Ethyl Ether CAS NO 74368-00-6 is a synthetic aromatic ether derivative of eugenol, prized for its stable, warm, and spicy-woody olfactory profile. This compound matters for formulators seeking a long-lasting, non-irritating fragrance component that is more stable than its phenolic precursor. It is needed by manufacturers in the fragrance and flavor industries, as well as by researchers developing novel intermediates for organic synthesis.

Application

• Fragrance & Flavor Industry: A key ingredient in perfumery for creating spicy, carnation-like, and woody notes in fine fragrances, soaps, and detergents due to its enhanced stability.
• Flavoring Agent: Used to impart a warm, spicy character to food and beverage products, often as a substitute for natural eugenol where greater shelf-life is required.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a protected or derivatized form of eugenol for the synthesis of more complex molecules in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research.
• Aromatherapy & Cosmetic Formulations: Incorporated into cosmetic products and essential oil blends for its pleasant, persistent aroma and potential soothing properties.
• Industrial Deodorants & Masking Agents: Employed in household and industrial products to mask unpleasant odors with a pleasant, spicy fragrance.

Quality Control

Our Eugenyl Ethyl Ether is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and olfactory profile. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, refractive index, and specific gravity are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). As the material is easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to maintain optimal quality and shelf life. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
