  • Applications

    Azulene, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-1,4-dimethyl-7-(1-methylethenyl)-, (1S,4S,7R)- may serve as a chiral building block or synthetic intermediate in organic synthesis with relevance to pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. In fragrance and cosmetics, it can be evaluated as a niche aroma component or scent modifier, contributing to fragrance character or fixation in formulations. In polymer science and materials, it can act as a precursor for specialty polymers or as a scaffold to develop azulene-based monomers or additives that influence rigidity, thermal stability, or optical properties in coatings and plastics. In research and development, it is used as a scaffold to explore structure-activity relationships and to synthesize related azulene derivatives. It may appear as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes or organic materials for specialized electronics. CAS number:
