  • Applications

    Chemical name: Cyclohexanol, 2-methoxy-6-(2,3,3-trimethylbicyclo(2.2.1)hept-2-yl)-; CAS number: 17735-99-8 is used primarily as an intermediate in fragrance chemistry and cosmetics, providing a chiral building block for the synthesis of complex aroma compounds. It may also function as a solvent or processing aid in industrial manufacturing and as a precursor for specialty monomers used in polymers and coatings. In household products and cleaning formulations, it can appear as a component that influences solubility and fragrance release. In perfumery, the bulky terpenoid-like norbornyl substituent can contribute to fragrance profile and persistence, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
