Profile

cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate is curated in this catalog as a green material, with a secondary reading of crisp fruit.

On the strip it reads fresh green pear apple.

It is registered under CAS 3681-71-8.

The catalog records an average working dose of 5% Max%, which is a starting point for a trial rather than a limit.

How it behaves

volatility index 0.91 · the opening

A boiling point of 75.5 °C and a molecular weight of 142.2 g/mol give cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate a volatility index of 0.91, which places it in the opening of a composition.

It leaves the strip early and does its work in the first minutes, before the heart arrives.

The index runs from 0 for a material that barely leaves the strip to 1 for one that flashes off, and it is computed from boiling point and molecular weight. Inside a real formula the surrounding materials shift where the boundaries fall, so a material can read differently there than it does here.

Questions about cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate

What does cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate smell like?

cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate reads as green and crisp fruit, described in the catalog as fresh green pear apple.

Is cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate a top, heart or base note?

cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate sits in the opening. Its volatility index of 0.91 is computed from a boiling point of 75.5 °C and a molecular weight of 142.2 g/mol, rather than assigned by hand. It leaves the strip early and does its work in the first minutes, before the heart arrives.

How much cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate should I use?

The catalog records an average working dose of 5% Max% for cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate. Treat that as the starting point for a trial: the right dose depends on what else is in the formula and what you want it to do there.

What can I use instead of cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate?

The closest materials in this catalog by olfactive profile and physical behaviour are Triplal (IFF) (76.5% match), Ethyl Hexanoate (74% match) and Rose Oxide (73.1% match). Closeness is scored on descriptor taxonomy and on measured properties, so the nearest match is the one that behaves most like cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate. Ranking ignores price.

What is the CAS number for cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate?

cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate is registered under CAS 3681-71-8 in this catalog.
