  • Applications

    Tricyclo(6.3.1.02,5)dodecan-1-ol, 4,4,8-trimethyl-, (1R,2S,5R,8S)- (CAS 56747-96-7) is a rigid, hydrophobic, tertiary polycyclic alcohol; in practice and research, compounds of this type are leveraged as low-volatility fragrance components/fixatives (used directly or as esters) and as pro‑fragrance carriers, as intermediates to prepare sesquiterpenoid, ester, and carbamate derivatives for pharma/agro leads, as a chiral building block or auxiliary for stereoselective synthesis, as a precursor to acrylate/methacrylate/urethane monomers for resins, coatings and adhesives to enhance hardness, hydrophobicity and thermo‑oxidative stability, as lubricant additives after long‑chain esterification to improve friction, flash point and volatility profiles, and as analytical reference/retention-index markers in GC–MS and model substrates for studying the geometry and properties of rigid hydrocarbon frameworks; specific deployment depends on safety, sensory, and regulatory assessments in the intended application.
