  • Applications

    Isopropyl 3-methyl-2-butenoate is commonly used as a building block in specialty synthesis and can serve as a fragrance ingredient or odorant in perfumery. It is often employed as a precursor for the synthesis of related aroma esters and other fragrance materials; as a solvent or processing aid in coatings, inks, and cleaning formulations; and as a reactive intermediate or monomer-like component in some specialty polymers and resins. It may also find use in cosmetic and personal care formulations as a fragrance/solvent component, subject to formulation limits and local regulations.
