  • Applications

    Hexyl anthranilate (CAS 18189-05-4) is primarily used as an aroma chemical in perfumery and flavor applications, contributing fruity and floral notes to fragrances and flavor formulations. In cosmetics and personal care, it is commonly employed as a fragrance ingredient in products such as creams, lotions, and soaps, helping shape distinct scent profiles. It is also used in household products and air fresheners as an odorant component to impart recognizable fragrance. As an ester of anthranilic acid, it may be encountered as an intermediate in the synthesis of fragrance compounds and related specialty chemicals, with use governed by local regulations and formulation limits.
