TCI B6829 Bourgeonal (CAS 18127-01-0) is an aromatic aldehyde valued for its characteristic lily-of-the-valley odour profile. Beyond fragrance formulation, it is widely used in sensory biology as a defined odorant stimulus for studying human olfactory receptor responses and associated calcium signalling. Its aldehyde group also makes it a useful synthetic handle for reduction, oxidation, imine formation, and aldol-type condensations. Supplied in 1 g and 5 g packs, this liquid should be kept tightly sealed, cool, and dark — ideally under inert gas — to limit oxidation.
