CAS: 54440-17-4
Safraleine (CAS: 54440-17-4) is a synthetic aroma chemical widely appreciated for its powerful, warm, spicy, leathery, tobacco, and saffron-like aroma. It is an aldehyde derivative, specifically a substituted propenal, known for effectively delivering a sophisticated saffron note in various applications.
Primarily utilized as a key ingredient in fragrance formulations. It also finds limited use as a flavor component to impart unique spicy and savory notes.
In perfumery, Safraleine is a versatile compound used in fine fragrances (perfumes, colognes), personal care products (soaps, lotions, body washes), home care products (air fresheners, candles), and other scented items. It is especially valuable in creating oriental, spicy, woody, tobacco, and leather accords. In flavor applications, it can contribute to savory and spice blends, though its use is less common than in fragrances.
Generally considered safe for use in fragrance and flavor applications when used at recommended concentrations. Like many aroma chemicals, there is a potential for skin sensitization in susceptible individuals, although risk is typically low. Comprehensive safety information, including handling precautions, irritation data, and flammability, is detailed in its Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes in concentrated form.
