N-nonyl methacrylate, developed in a range of esters for entirely different purpose (plastic and plexiglass) has been suggested for use in perfume compositions for its powerful lift and warm, ethereal character, blending excellently with Geranium, Lavender, Spike Lavender, etc. for detergent perfumes and similar type fragrances.

N-nonyl methacrylate can be produced by ester exchange reaction from Nonyl acetate and Methyl methacrylate. The methacrylates are unstable at elevated temperatures.
