What is pentadecanal?
The Uses of pentadecanal
Pentadecanal is found in the essential oil of verbascum thapsus. L, a species of mullein that is native to europe and is known to possess antimicrobial activitiy.
The Uses of pentadecanal
Pentadecanal only rarely offered from the regular manufacturers of perfume chemicals, is occasionally used in perfume compositions as pari of a floral base or part of a floral top note, aldehydic-green or aldehydic-fruity topnote. It blends excellently with Methylnonylacetaldehyde and has a mellowing effect upon that material, but in general, pentadecanal is dispensable in modem perfumery.
Definition

Production Methods
Pentadecanal can be produced by oxidation of Pentadecanol.
