Use | Uses There are reports in the literature that methyl 15-hydroxydecanoate can be used to prepare cyclopentadecanolactone. Cyclopetenolactone (Cyclopentadecanolide), also known as hollycum, belongs to macrolide musk. Because of its non-toxic, delicate aroma, elegant and lasting advantages, it has become an important substitute for natural musk. |
