Uses
(Gamma)-Nonalactone is a synthetic flavoring agent that is a colorless to yellow liquid of strong, coconut-like odor. It is soluble in most fixed oils, mineral oil, and propylene glycol. It is stable in acids and unstable in alkali and should be stored in glass, tin, or aluminum containers. It is used in coconut flavors and has application in gelatins, puddings, baked goods, candy, and ice cream at 11–55 ppm. It is also termed aldehyde c-18.
