CAS No: 1501-82-2 The singly unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon cyclododecence (CDEN) is the latest member of our C12 family of products. CDEN is a colorless liquid at room temperature. For manufacturing we developed a new process that provides a mixture of the cis- and trans- isomers with a very low diene content. - CDEN is a versatile chemical intermediate for organic synthesis
- It is used in the synthesis of aromatic principles, for example, production of musk fragrances and perfumes with a wood note.
- Ozonolysis of CDEN and oxidative degradation in nitric acid yield in the Evonik product dodecanedioic acid (DDDA)
