Description

(S)-3,7-Dimethyloct-7-Enyl Acetate is a high-purity, chiral fragrance and flavor intermediate known for its specific stereochemistry. This compound is valued for its role in synthesizing premium-grade aroma chemicals with consistent olfactory profiles. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the fragrance, flavor, and fine chemical industries for creating sophisticated scent and flavor molecules.

Application

• Fragrance Industry: A key chiral building block for the synthesis of high-value terpenoid and floral fragrance ingredients, such as linalool and geraniol derivatives.
• Flavor Industry: Used in the production of natural-identical flavoring agents, contributing to citrus, floral, and woody notes in food and beverage applications.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a versatile chiral intermediate in asymmetric synthesis for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
• Aroma Chemical Production: Essential for manufacturing enantiomerically pure aroma chemicals where the specific (S)-configuration is required for the desired scent characteristic.
• Research & Development: Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying terpene chemistry and developing new chiral catalysts or synthetic pathways.

Quality Control

Our (S)-3,7-Dimethyloct-7-Enyl Acetate is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure high chiral purity and chemical identity, meeting the stringent requirements of the flavor and fragrance industry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, enantiomeric excess, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 2-8°C or as specified on the label. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
