Description :
Methyl Heptenone can be described as an uncoloured to light yellow liquid that has a pleasing citrusy and fruity scent. It is a ketone that is commonly employed as a scent ingredient as well as a chemical intermediary for the production of high-quality chemicals. It is renowned for its volatile properties, as well as its stability, strength, and scent. Methyl Heptenone is used extensively in the production of perfumes, flavour formulations, and personal care products. The fact that it is solubilised in oils and organic solvents makes it a good choice for a myriad of industrial and cosmetic uses.
Methyl Heptenone can be employed to give fruity, citrus, and sweet notes on top in perfumes, colognes, as well as perfumed products for personal care. For refreshing, fruity blends, try combining Methyl Heptenone with Melonal, lending crisp melon-cucumber facets.
The scent can be added to shampoos, lotions, creams, conditioners, cosmetics, and deodorants. It provides an appealing, refreshing scent. Stability ensures the smell remains effective throughout its use.
Used as a flavouring agent or intermediate in food and beverage formulations to provide fruity, sweet, or citrus notes. In flavour development, Methyl Heptenone can complement ester compounds like Acetyl Methyl Anthranilate to enhance sweet, fruit-forward notes.
Serves as a feedstock in the manufacture of other ketones, esters and speciality fragrance materials. The carbonyl group has reactivity, thus it can be used in aldol condensations, esterifications, and other organic reactions.
Used in scented candles, room sprays, air fresheners, and various household cleaning supplies to impart a fresh and pleasant scent.
Used fragrance and flavor formulation labs as a reagent or reference for the development of new scent or flavor profiles.
Methyl Heptenone is soluble in alcohols, oils, and organic solvents, allowing easy incorporation into various personal care, fragrance, and flavor products. Its strong odor profile provides a practical impact even at low concentrations.
