Isolongifolene(CAS#1135-66-6)
Isolongifolene(CAS#1135-66-6) introduction
Isoprophylene is an organic compound. It is a colorless liquid with a special fragrance. The following is an introduction to the properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information of isosrophyllene:
It is volatile at room temperature and can react with oxygen.
Uses: Isoprofene has good solvent and volatility, and is often used as a solvent for coatings, glues, inks and cleaning agents in industry.
Preparation method: The main preparation method of isofoylene is obtained by the dehydrogenation reaction of olefins. Common methods include dehydrogenation of alkanes using catalysts or cracking of olefins at high temperatures and pressures.
Safety Information: Isofophyll is flammable, it must be stored in an airtight container and isolated from flammable materials and oxygen. When using isofrophyllene, be careful to prevent it from coming into contact with the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes, and avoid inhaling its vapors. In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention promptly. During use, you should follow the safe operating procedures for chemicals and wear appropriate protective equipment.
Application
Isolongifolene (CAS 1135-66-6) is a tricyclic sesquiterpene hydrocarbon naturally found in essential oils such as patchouli, copaiba, and longleaf pine. It is a structurally stable isomer of longifolene, valued for its woody, dry, slightly fruity and smoky aroma with excellent fixative properties. In the flavor and fragrance industry, isolongifolene is widely used as a base note ingredient in perfumes, colognes, aftershaves, soaps, detergents, and fabric softeners. It imparts a long-lasting, warm woody character while stabilizing volatile top notes. As a chemical intermediate, it can be transformed into isolongifolanone, isolongifolenol, and other derivatives used in high-end fine fragrances and household products. Its high thermal and oxidative stability makes it suitable for applications requiring durability, such as candles, incense, and industrial air fresheners. Isolongifolene also serves as a bio-based solvent for resins and waxes, and as a starting material for synthesizing insect repellents and lubricant additives.
