Anisole

Anisole (CAS 100-66-3 ), also known as phenyl methyl ether, is an aromatic ether used across fragrance, flavor, and specialty chemical manufacturing. Carrying FEMA 2097 status, it functions as a flavoring agent. It serves as a key intermediate in synthesizing dyes, pharmaceuticals, and aroma chemicals. In fragrance and flavor formulation, it contributes anise-like and sweet floral notes to perfumes and personal care products. Dye and pigment manufacturers use it as a chemical intermediate to produce methoxy-substituted aromatic compounds for printing inks and packaging colorants. It is also utilized in various food applications. In catalysis, it acts as a solvent or substrate in Friedel-Crafts reactions and other electrophilic aromatic substitution processes relevant to fine chemical production. This makes it highly versatile for industrial use. Its reactivity toward selective functionalization also makes it a precursor in synthesizing active pharmaceutical and agrochemical ingredients. This chemical is essential for high-precision synthesis in modern laboratories. The product is supplied as a clear liquid in drum and IBC quantities, with bulk tanker options available for larger industrial volumes. Technical grade is the standard commercial offering for most buyers. This grade meets purity specifications suitable for industrial synthesis and fragrance applications. Food-grade and flavor-compliant material is available for buyers requiring FEMA-recognized sourcing documentation. Contact us for supply of Anisole Request Quote
