  • Applications

    Tetradec-9-enal (CAS 60671-78-5) is a C14 unsaturated aliphatic aldehyde used widely in perfumery and fragrance creation for green, fatty–waxy, citrus-peel and slightly marine/ozonic facets, extending freshness and bridging citrus top notes with herbal, floral, and woody bases in fine fragrances, personal care, cleaners, and air/household products; it is also a key component of pheromone blends for various Lepidoptera, formulated in lures and dispensers for monitoring, trapping, and mating disruption in integrated pest management with high selectivity and low environmental impact; additionally it serves as a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis (to related alcohols/acids/epoxides), a GC/MS reference for unsaturated aliphatic aldehydes, a model compound in lipid oxidation and sensory studies, and a tool in chemical ecology and insect bait design.
