Applications
Description3-Heptanol has a powerful, herbaceous odor and a pungent, slightly bitter taste. May be prepared through catalytic hydrogenation of ethyl-n-butyl ketone.
OccurrenceReported found in banana, papaya, French fried potato, peppermint oil, butter, fried or grilled beef, cognac, coffee, peated malt and rooibus tea (Aspalathius linearis)
UsesFlotation frother, solvent and diluent in organic coatings, intermediates.
Uses3-Heptanol can be used:As a solvent to form microenvironments around single-walled carbon nanotubes.To prepare substituted pyrimidine derivatives as C1 domain-targeted isophthalate analogs to study their binding affinities towards PKCαisoform.As a building block to synthesize 4-(3-adamantan-1-yl-ureido)-butyric acid and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid derivatives as sEH inhibitors.
