  • Applications

    (8)-Shogaol, CAS 36700-45-5, is a pungent ginger-derived compound used in several industrial applications. In fragrance and perfumery, it serves as an odorant component to impart or enhance warm, spicy notes in perfumes and personal care products at controlled concentrations. In the food and flavor sector, it may be employed as a characteristic spice-like aroma contributor for ginger-style products. In cosmetics and personal care, it can function as an aroma constituent or active ingredient at low levels, contributing a warm, spicy sensory profile. In industrial manufacturing, (8)-Shogaol may act as an organic synthesis intermediate or a raw material for development-oriented processes, subject to applicable regulations and formulation limits.
