  • Applications

    Hexyl 2-sulfanylbutanoate is used as a fragrance ingredient and odorant in perfumery and cosmetic formulations, and can serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis for aroma-related compounds. It may be incorporated into household cleaning products to impart or modify scent, and into coatings or inks as a fragrance additive. In industrial manufacturing, it often serves as a building block for the synthesis of aroma esters and related sulfur-containing compounds, and in cosmetics/personal care as a scent component in lotions, soaps, and related products.
