  • Applications

    2,2,3-Trimethylcyclopentaneethanol (CAS 52363-24-3) is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the preparation of functional derivatives such as esters and ethers for fragrance and specialty chemical applications; it can function as a low-volatility solvent or co-solvent in coatings, inks, and cleaning formulations; it serves as a precursor or building block for cyclopentane-based fragrance compounds and other functionalized derivatives used in perfumery and flavor chemistry; in polymer and resin formulations, it may act as a reactive processing aid owing to its alcohol functionality and compact structure; in cosmetics and personal care, it may be employed as a processing solvent or fragrance component within formulation limits; overall, use is typically subject to local regulations and formulation constraints.
