Overview of 2-Methyl-4-Heptanol

2-Methyl-4-heptanol is a transparent or pale yellow liquid, with a slight, lightly fat-like odour that is extensively used as a chemical intermediate that can be used in the fragrance, flavour and specialty chemical industry. It's a branched-chain alcohol which is involved in the production of aroma chemicals such as perfumery compounds, as well as fine chemical compounds. Chemical stability, pleasing smell, and the ability to mix with fragrance ingredients make it a crucial ingredient for making complex flavour and scent formulations.
