Musk Xylene

Description:
Musk xylene, with the CAS number 81-15-2, is a synthetic aromatic compound belonging to the class of musk fragrances. It is characterized by its musky odor, which is often used in perfumery and as a fragrance fixative in various cosmetic products. Musk xylene is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its chemical structure features a xylene backbone, which contributes to its stability and persistence in formulations. Musk xylene is known for its long-lasting scent, making it a popular choice in the fragrance industry. However, it has raised environmental and health concerns due to its potential bioaccumulation and endocrine-disrupting properties. As a result, its use is regulated in some regions, and alternatives are being explored. Overall, musk xylene exemplifies the complexities of synthetic fragrances, balancing desirable olfactory qualities with environmental and health considerations.
