  • Applications

    2-Cyclopentadecenone, CAS 89308-00-9, is a macrocyclic ketone primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and cosmetics. It is commonly used as an odorant and fixative to build musk- or floral-like notes in perfumes and personal care formulations. It can also serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of macrocyclic musk compounds and may be incorporated into cosmetic and personal care products to enhance scent longevity. In household fragrance products such as detergents and fabric softeners, it may be employed to impart or maintain a lasting aroma. It may also be evaluated for use in coatings and inks as an odorant additive where a long-lasting scent is desired; usage depends on local regulations and formulation limits.
