  • Applications

    4-Tetradecenal, (4E)- (CAS 115018-39-8) is a long-chain aldehyde mainly used as a fragrance ingredient and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other odorants. In fragrance and cosmetics, it contributes to fresh, floral notes and can be used as a fragrance component or as a building block for related aroma compounds. It is also employed in household and cleaning products as a scent ingredient to impart a pleasant fragrance. Additionally, it can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of more complex fragrance materials in chemical manufacturing. Its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
