9-hydroxy-5,9-dimethyldec-4-enal 926-50-1

9-Hydroxy-5,9-dimethyldec-4-enal (CAS: 926-50-1) is an important fragrance intermediate and raw material for the personal care industry. This product is typically presented as a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid, with a purity of 98% or higher (up to 99% by HPLC analysis). Its molecular formula is C₁₂H₂₂O₂ with a molecular weight of 198.3 g/mol.

This compound features a classic muguet (lily of the valley) floral scent, known for its fresh and clean olfactory profile. It is widely used in the preparation of long-lasting fragrance precursors by reacting with primary or secondary amines to form stable delivery systems (such as aminals and enamines) that release the aldehyde fragrance over time. This makes it particularly suitable for rinse-off applications including shampoos, body washes, fabric softeners, and laundry detergents.

The product has a boiling point of approximately 268°C, a density of around 0.938, and exhibits moderate lipophilicity (LogP 1.8). It is stable under normal storage conditions and should be kept away from direct sunlight. The compound is classified as non-hazardous and can be transported as general chemicals.

Currently, multiple fine chemical manufacturers in China can supply this product in quantities ranging from 1kg to metric tons, with various purity grades available. For detailed pricing, specifications, and lead times, please contact the suppliers directly.
