4-n-Butylcyclohexanone (CAS: 61203-82-5) is mainly used in three core fields: liquid crystal materials, fragrances and flavors, and organic synthesis intermediates.
 
  1. Liquid Crystal Materials (Main Application)

     

    As a key cyclic ketone intermediate, it is used in the synthesis of liquid crystal monomers and intermediates (e.g., cyclohexylbenzene and biphenyl liquid crystals).

     

    It improves the chemical stability, low-temperature miscibility, and clearing point of liquid crystals, suitable for TN/STN/TFT display panels.

     
  2. Fragrances and Daily Chemicals

     

    It has a sweet floral and woody odor, with good stability and compatibility.

     

    Used in the fragrance formulation of perfumes, personal care products, cosmetics, household fragrances, and air fresheners.

     
  3. Organic Synthesis, Pharmaceuticals and Materials
     
    • Pharmaceutical intermediate: Used in the synthesis of precursors for active molecules such as antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-Alzheimer’s agents.
    • Material intermediate: Applied in high-performance materials including polyimides, epoxy resins, and specialty polymers.
    • Organic building block: A key unit for constructing cyclohexyl- and alkyl-substituted complex molecules.
     
  4. Others
     
    • High-efficiency solvent: Used in resins, coatings, inks, rubber, and electronic cleaning.
    • Additive intermediate: Used for stabilizers, modifiers, and plasticizers in plastics and rubber.
