Used as a flavor and fragrance compound due to its strong roasted, nutty, and earthy aroma. Commonly applied in the food industry to enhance flavors in products such as roasted nuts, coffee, chocolate, and savory snacks. Also utilized in perfumery for adding warm, complex base notes to fragrance formulations. Its high odor potency allows effective use at low concentrations, making it valuable in both synthetic flavor compositions and aroma chemicals.
