Nonanol occurs naturally in orange oil. The primary use of nonanol is in the manufacture of artificial lemon oil. Various esters of nonanol, such as nonyl acetate, are used in perfumery and flavors.

Toxicity

1-Nonanol shares similar toxicological properties to those of other primary alcohols. It is poorly absorbed through the skin and is severely irritating to the eyes. Vapors can be damaging to the lungs, causing pulmonary edema in severe cases. Oral exposure results in symptoms similar to those of ethanol intoxication, and like ethanol consumption, can cause liver damage. [3]

gollark: It's entry 2.93e36 on my "should probably do but don't" list.
gollark: Because the second one is apparently pretty practical with a cheap SDR and some antennas, I believe some people on here do it.
gollark: Do you mean actually meddle with them or just receive them?
gollark: Weird.
gollark: Nowadays, if someone came up with the idea of sending privileged system messages down something the user could easily read/write to, they would probably not be taken seriously, but it seems like they just... didn't think of the security implications? Or thought doing it differently would be too costly maybe.
