ISOPENTENONE BUTYLENEGLYCOL CYCLIC ACETAL.

Insufficient Data CAS 53338-05-9 / PERFUMING

ISOPENTENONE BUTYLENEGLYCOL CYCLIC ACETAL is a compound primarily integrated into cosmetic formulations for its fragrance properties. As a cyclic acetal, it maintains structural integrity in neutral to strongly basic pH environments but undergoes hydrolysis when exposed to acidic conditions. Currently, no specific skincare benefits have been documented for this ingredient.

Summary

Fragrance

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions solely as a fragrance component within topical applications. Its cyclic acetal structure demonstrates stability in environments ranging from neutral to strongly basic, specifically within a pH of 7 to 14. However, in acidic conditions, the acetal linkage is susceptible to hydrolysis, leading to its decomposition into original carbonyl compounds and polyols.

Stability

The ingredient demonstrates robust stability in neutral to strongly basic pH environments, specifically between pH 7 and pH 14. Investigations into analogous cyclic ketals have shown no measurable hydrolysis when maintained at pH 7.4 for up to seven days. Conversely, its degradation is significantly accelerated in acidic conditions due to the susceptibility of the acetal bond to hydrolysis.
