  • Applications

    2(3H)-Furanone, 3-heptyldihydro- (CAS number: 2983-21-3) is primarily encountered as a fragrance-related lactone, serving as an odorant in perfumery and as a scent additive in cosmetics and personal care products; it can also appear in household products (air fresheners and cleaners) as a fragrance component. The compound may be evaluated as a flavor/aroma ingredient where permitted in food-related applications, and in industrial manufacturing it is employed as an intermediate in organic synthesis for more complex aroma compound formulations or specialty scent materials.
