Explore Top-Quality Campholenic Aldehyde with Aure Chemical
Campholenic Aldehyde (Campholenal), CAS 4501-58-0, is a high-purity, unsaturated monoterpene aldehyde derived from the rearrangement of α-Pinene Oxide. It presents as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a powerful, sharp, camphorous, and pine-like odor with citrus undertones. Campholenic Aldehyde is not typically used directly in fragrance but is instead a crucial, highly reactive intermediate for the synthesis of complex, high-value aroma chemicals, especially those with sandalwood or musk profiles. Aure Chemical provides this chemical intermediate with full Kosher and Halal certifications.

Application Overview
Campholenic Aldehyde's high reactivity is maximized as a versatile synthetic building block in the aroma chemical industry:
Synthetic Musk Production: This is its most critical application. It is the primary precursor for a wide range of commercially successful synthetic musk compounds (e.g., Cyclacene, and related molecules) which are vital for adding depth, warmth, and tenacity to fine fragrances and consumer products.
Sandalwood Synthetics: It is also a key starting material for producing numerous synthetic sandalwood notes that serve as ethical and cost-effective alternatives to natural sandalwood oil.
Specialty Flavor & Fragrance Building: While generally not used neat, its derivatives are used to synthesize compounds with pine, camphor, herbal, or specific citrus flavor and fragrance profiles.
Chemical Intermediate: The aldehyde functional group makes it highly reactive, enabling it to undergo various chemical transformations, including reduction to the corresponding alcohol (Campholenol) or condensation reactions.
Why Choose Aure Chemical for Campholenic Aldehyde?
Aure Chemical is committed to providing Campholenic Aldehyde (CAS 4501-58-0) with the precise purity and certification required for its use as a core intermediate in high-value aroma chemical synthesis.
Aldehyde Purity & Stability: Our Campholenic Aldehyde is meticulously purified to achieve minimal water and acid content. This critical purity ensures that the aldehyde functional group is fully reactive for your intended condensation or synthesis reactions, maximizing the yield of complex downstream fragrance molecules.
Dedicated Kosher/Halal Stream: We maintain strict control over our processing chain, offering dual Kosher and Halal certification documented by third-party auditors. This level of compliance guarantees that your synthesized musk or sandalwood derivative can be marketed globally to all consumer segments.
Custom Isomer Ratios: Recognizing that the final odor quality can depend on isomer purity, we offer the capability to supply Campholenic Aldehyde with custom-tailored cis/trans isomer ratios upon request, allowing perfumers precise control over the character of their derived aroma chemicals.
Safe and Stable Storage: Aldehydes are prone to polymerization and oxidation. Our product is shipped in air-tight, light-shielding containers and may include a specialized, volatile stabilizer to ensure the aldehyde remains in its highly reactive, monomeric form throughout its shelf life.
