  • Applications

    Butanoic acid, 3-methyl-, 3-hexenyl ester (CAS 10032-11-8) is commonly used as a fragrance ingredient and odorant in perfumery and cosmetics, providing green, fruity notes and may act as a light fixative. It is also used in household products, such as detergents and cleaners, to impart a fresh scent; in food processing it may be evaluated for use as a flavor/aroma compound where permitted by regulations. It can also serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of other fragrance chemicals and as a processing aid in aroma-related industrial formulations.
