Description :
2-Acetylfuran is an aroma compound used in fragrance and flavor industries. It has a sweet, caramel scent with roasted and bread-like notes. This makes it popular for flavoring food and beverages. Companies also use it as a building block for making specialty chemicals, medicines, and fragrances.
Serves as an intermediate in drug synthesis and in the preparation of specialty chemicals for medicinal applications.
2-Acetylfuran can also be chemically linked to related compounds such as Furfural or 2-Acetylpyrrole through oxidation, substitution, or condensation reactions. Its stability, reactivity, and aromatic profile make it a preferred raw material in advanced chemical synthesis, particularly where precision and purity are required.
Storage: Keep in a cool, dry, and ventilated area in tightly closed containers away from heat and light.
