  • Applications

    Phenylethyl-mercaptoacetate is a thiol-containing ester; it is typically used as an aroma chemical. In perfumery, it can act as an odorant and contribute sulfur notes, potentially serving as a fixative or scent modifier in formulations. In cosmetics and personal care, it is used as a fragrance ingredient to impart distinctive notes. It may be evaluated for flavor/aroma applications in flavor formulations, providing sulfur-containing aromatic notes within permissible limits. In industrial manufacturing, it can function as an intermediate for synthesizing other sulfur-containing fragrance compounds or specialty chemicals, and it can be incorporated into household products such as scented cleaners or air fresheners where fragrance components are required.
