What does 3-Mercaptohexyl acetate smell like?

Green sulfurous thiol bursting into passion fruit and box tree, brighter and more overtly tropical than 3-mercaptohexanol, with a savory caramelized-onion background and a catty drydown. The acetate ester of 3-MH: use at ppb to ppm for the lifted, exotic top of passion fruit, cassis and Sauvignon accords.

Every regulatory join - IFRA, GHS, allergens - is by CAS number, and a material can supply one through its constituents as well as its own row, so of the 569 materials carrying no CAS number the 244 without a constituent table are the ones that return "nothing known" rather than "nothing applies". The blotter hours are sourced rather than measured by us, and the app labels every one of them an estimate. There is no physical chemistry on a row: no molecular weight, no vapour pressure, no boiling point. The longer answer, or the whole catalog counted.
