CAS 541-91-3

(±)-Muscone

Description:

(±)-Muscone, with the CAS number 541-91-3, is a naturally occurring organic compound classified as a ketone. It is primarily known for its musky odor, which makes it a valuable ingredient in the fragrance industry. The compound is a chiral molecule, existing as a racemic mixture of its enantiomers, which contributes to its complex scent profile. (±)-Muscone has a relatively high boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, but it has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Its molecular structure features a long carbon chain, which is characteristic of many musky fragrances. In addition to its use in perfumery, (±)-Muscone has been studied for its potential applications in food flavoring and as a pheromone in certain animal species. The compound is generally recognized as safe for use in cosmetics and personal care products, although its concentration is regulated to ensure consumer safety. Overall, (±)-Muscone is an important compound in both the fragrance industry and scientific research.
