  • Applications

    5-Octenyl propionate, (5Z)- (CAS number: 196109-18-9) is used in perfumery and cosmetics as an odorant and fragrance ingredient, often contributing green or fruity notes and can function as a fixative in fragrance formulations. In cosmetics/personal care, it serves as a fragrance component in products such as lotions, shampoos and creams. In household products, it is employed as a fragrance ingredient in cleaners and detergents to impart a lasting aroma. In coatings/inks, it can serve as a fragrance additive and, due to the olefinic functionality, may undergo further modification in formulation. In polymers/plastics contexts, the olefinic moiety provides a handle for derivatization, making it a potential intermediate for fragrance-related polymer additives. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
