5-Butyl-5-hydroxy-3,4-dimethylfuran-2-one is a gamma-lactone with fruity and warm notes, commonly used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and as a flavor/aroma compound in consumer products; it can also be employed in cosmetics and personal care to impart scent, and in household cleaning products to provide a pleasant odor. In coatings and inks, it may function as a fragrance additive or odorant modifier, while in industrial manufacturing it is used as an intermediate for fragrance synthesis and as a building block for certain polymer or plastics formulations.
