Natural Nonanal Cas 124-19-6| High-Purity Aldehyde for Flavor & Fragrance

Natural Nonanal (CAS: 124-19-6, FEMA: 2782) is a high-purity, naturally derived aliphatic aldehyde widely recognized for its fresh, citrus-like, and waxy-floral aroma profile with subtle green and fatty undertones. It occurs naturally in various essential oils, including orange, lemon, rose, and grapefruit oils, and is also found in fresh citrus peels and green leafy vegetables. This product is obtained through carefully controlled fractional distillation from renewable botanical sources, ensuring consistent quality and compliance with international flavor and fragrance standards.

With a molecular formula of C₉H₁₈O, Natural Nonanal features a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid appearance at room temperature. It offers excellent solubility in alcohol and most fixed oils, making it highly versatile for formulation across multiple applications. The product is stabilized to maintain freshness and is available in a range of purity grades to suit different industrial requirements.

In flavor applications, Natural Nonanal delivers a bright, refreshing citrus character that enhances orange, lemon, and mandarin profiles, as well as providing realistic green, melon, and fruity notes in beverage, confectionery, and savory products. Its natural origin allows formulators to meet clean-label and naturally derived ingredient standards. In fragrance creation, it serves as a powerful top-note modifier, contributing to floral bouquets (particularly rose, jasmine, and tuberose), citrus colognes, and aldehyde-type compositions.

Beyond flavors and fragrances, this versatile aldehyde finds use in cosmetic preparations, aromatherapy blends, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of specialty aroma chemicals. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent odor profile, purity above 98%, and compliance with relevant regulatory standards for natural flavor and fragrance ingredients.

Product is typically supplied in high-density polyethylene drums or aluminum containers under inert atmosphere to preserve stability. Recommended storage conditions include keeping containers tightly sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and strong oxidizing agents. With proper handling, Natural Nonanal offers excellent shelf stability and reliable performance for professional formulation needs.
