Chemical Structure

Basic Info
1-Penten-3-ol (CAS Registry Number: 616-25-1), also known as vinyl ethyl carbinol or ethyl vinyl carbinol, is an unsaturated secondary aliphatic alcohol featuring a terminal double bond and a hydroxyl group on the third carbon atom. Occurring naturally in various food matrices—such as mushrooms, tomatoes, tea leaves, and seafoods—this key volatile organic compound is recognized for its distinct grassy, green, and characteristic mushroom-like odor profile with subtle ethereal notes.
Synthesized under strictly controlled catalytic and organic processing conditions by Shandong Zhishang Chemical Co., Ltd., our 1-Penten-3-ol is refined to meet high chemical purity standards. It functions as an indispensable aroma ingredient in flavor and fragrance compounding, as well as a versatile organic intermediate for organic synthesis, pharmaceutical building blocks, and specialty fine chemical formulations.
