Applications
Butylidene dihydro-phthalide is used as an aroma chemical and fragrance intermediate in perfumery, contributing specific scent notes to a range of products. It is commonly evaluated for use in cosmetics and personal care products as a fragrance component and may appear in household products such as cleaners and air fresheners for a lasting odor. In industrial manufacturing it serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of additional fragrance compounds, and it can be considered for use in coatings and inks as a fragrance additive where a subtle note is desired.
