  • Applications

    Cyclamen aldehyde dimethyl acetal (CAS 29886-96-2) is mainly used in perfumery as an odorant and fragrance intermediate, functioning as a protected aldehyde that can be hydrolyzed to cyclamen aldehyde within formulations to enable controlled aroma release. It also finds application in cosmetics and personal care as a fragrance ingredient, and in household cleaning products to impart a cyclamen-like scent. In industrial manufacturing, it serves as an intermediate in fragrance chemistry for industrial formulation.
