6-(sec-Butyl)quinoline (CAS NO : 65442-31-1)

Secondary Butyl Quinoline (SBQ), also referred to as sec-Butylquinoline and SAP55IYM36, is an aromatic nitrogen-containing compound preferred across multiple industries with distinct roles. In industrial applications specifically, SBQ robust structure enables it to form stable chelates with metal ions, making it a great chemical stabiliser in corrosion inhibitors, high-performance lubricants, and thermal oxidation-resistant formulations. On the other hand, under the identifier 6-(sec-Butyl)quinoline, it serves as a synthetic aroma chemical prized for its warm, musky, and subtly animalic scent. SBQ acts as a low-volatility fixative in fine fragrances, home scent compositions, and functional fragrances, exhibiting perfect blending compatibility with woody, amber, and leather accords. SBQ is REACH-registered; this dual-use molecule is also favoured in olfactory research & specialised chemical synthesis by speciality chemical suppliers and manufacturers. We are a globally established aroma chemicals supplier, along with a broad portfolio of other fragrances and perfumery worldwide through comprehensive regulatory documentation (CoA), traceability, and consistent global supply capabilities, ensuring reliable lead times and quality assurance across all grades.
