  • Applications

    1(10)-Aristolen-2-one (CAS 28398-06-3) is a natural sesquiterpene ketone used mainly in fragrance R&D: as a component or odor modulator imparting woody–earthy–vetiver/smoky nuances in fine fragrances, personal care, and candles; as a soft fixative/rounding note in woody, amber, and tobacco accords; as a reference standard in GC–MS for identification, quantification, and retention index mapping of essential oils; as a plant chemotaxonomic marker for sesquiterpene-rich species; in studies of sesquiterpene biosynthesis (conversion from aristolochene and oxidative ketone formation), and in process optimization for extraction/purification; as a test article in in vitro bioactivity screens (e.g., antimicrobial, antioxidant) and odor QSAR work, as well as for stability/oxidative robustness and packaging-compatibility assessments in fragrance formulations; such bioactivity findings are exploratory and not medical claims.
