General Description

9-Butyltetradecahydroanthracene, also known as BTHA, is a tricyclic hydrocarbon compound. It is a colorless liquid that is insoluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. BTHA is primarily used in the production of perfumes and fragrances due to its pleasant odor and ability to enhance and prolong the scent of other compounds. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. BTHA is considered to be a low hazard chemical with low acute toxicity, but it may pose a risk of skin and eye irritation upon direct contact. Overall, BTHA is a versatile chemical with various industrial applications.
