    Methylenedioxyphenyl Methylpropanal

    About This Product

    Methylenedioxyphenyl methylpropanal (CAS 1205-17-0), chemically 2-methyl-3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)propanal, is an aromatic aldehyde offered at 99% purity. The liquid ranges from colourless to light yellow, its odour mixes floral, green, aldehydic and ozone-like notes, and it keeps for 24 months stored cool and dry, away from strong light and heat. Perfumers use it to build fresh floral accords such as lilac, where it brings an airy, ozone-like lift to the heart of the blend. It is used in perfume compounds and in the fragrances of cosmetics, detergents and other household products. The grade is described as suitable for fragrance, perfume and cosmetic use, but each buyer needs to confirm that it is right for the intended formulation. Before use, check the CLP classification on the current safety data sheet, any IFRA limit for the product type and the current UK and EU cosmetics rules. Density, refractive index and the assay method are confirmed on enquiry.
