  • Applications

    Chemical name: 4-Octen-1-ol, (4Z)-; CAS number: 54393-36-1 is primarily used as a fragrance intermediate and odorant, serving as a building block for the synthesis of unsaturated esters and aroma compounds for perfumery and flavor applications; it may be employed in cosmetics and personal care as a scent ingredient; in household products as a fragrance component; in industrial manufacturing as a reactive intermediate for specialty polymers and plasticizers via esterification or other functionalizations; and it can be encountered as a processing aid or intermediate in coatings/inks formulations where unsaturated alkenyl functionality is advantageous.
