A mild, fatty-waxy ether with a clean, slightly green-aldehydic character. Reminiscent of dilute long-chain aliphatics — soft, oily, and diffuse without much sweetness or sharpness.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Almost colorless oily liquid.
Mild, sweet-oily odor with a peculiar earthy-green note, resembling the odor of freshly crushed peanuts. Also resembling the odor of the green peel of potatoes or raw coffee beans.
Apart from a few very rare, possible applications in perfumery, there is probably not much use for this ether. Its peculiar odor resembles notes in Amyris oil, Vetiver oil and Cedarwood oil, when these oils are either too fresh or produced from green plant material. In all cases, an undesirable odor.
Produced from n-Heptanol and n-Octanol by dehydration.
