Overview of 1-Nonanol

1-Nonanol, also known as nonan-1-ol, is a straight-chain primary fatty alcohol with the molecular formula C₉H₂₀O. It appears as a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, floral-fatty odour reminiscent of orange or rose. Although insoluble in water, it dissolves easily in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.

This compound is versatile and is a crucial component in chemical manufacturing, flavour and fragrance formulation, as well as production in the industrial sector.

Its reactivity makes it worthwhile in the production of esters, solvents, and organic intermediates. These are vital for lab research as well as industrial-scale chemical synthesis.
