CAS: 1335-46-2
Methyl ionone 70, identified by CAS 1335-46-2, refers to a mixture of various methyl ionone isomers. These are synthetic aroma chemicals belonging to the class of ketones, closely related to the ionones but featuring an additional methyl group. They are highly valued in perfumery for their complex, warm, woody, floral (often described as violet, orris-like, or powdery) scents. The specific composition of 'Methyl ionone 70' might indicate a particular blend or a predominance of certain isomers, contributing to variations in their nuanced fragrance profiles.
Predominantly used as a fragrance ingredient in a wide array of consumer products. It is also used in some flavor formulations, though less commonly than in perfumery.
Methyl ionone 70 is extensively applied in: perfumery (as a key base note in fine fragrances, colognes, and perfumes to impart warmth, body, and diffusion); cosmetics (in scented lotions, creams, soaps, bath products, and shampoos); household products (such as air fresheners, detergents, fabric softeners, and cleaning agents to provide a pleasant scent); and, to a limited extent, in flavor compositions for food and beverages where a floral, woody, or berry-like note is desired.
Methyl ionones, including those represented by CAS 1335-46-2, are known contact allergens for some individuals and can cause skin sensitization. They may also cause mild skin and eye irritation upon direct contact. It is a combustible liquid and should be handled with appropriate ventilation and away from ignition sources. Environmental considerations include potential harm to aquatic organisms. Precautions typically include avoiding contact with skin and eyes, using in well-ventilated areas, and wearing personal protective equipment such as gloves and safety glasses.
