6-Acetyl-1,1,2,4,4,7-hexamethyltetralin（Cat No.:M050191）is a synthetic aromatic ketone derived from tetralin, characterized by six methyl substituents and an acetyl group at the 6-position. It is commonly used as a fragrance ingredient due to its musky, woody scent, contributing richness and persistence to perfumes, detergents, and personal care products. Its chemical stability and low volatility enhance long-lasting olfactory performance. Structurally, the compound combines a partially hydrogenated naphthalene core with steric bulk, aiding in controlled release. Due to its widespread use, it is subject to regulatory assessment for environmental persistence and safety in formulations.
