About

2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

This alkylpyrazine is widely used in food flavorings and increasingly in perfumery for its powerful roasted, earthy odor. It carries multiple EU hazard classifications: H302 (harmful if swallowed), H315 (skin irritant), H319 (serious eye irritant), and H335 (may cause respiratory irritation). The SCCS has flagged pyrazines as compounds requiring careful safety evaluation, and IFRA applies concentration restrictions in cosmetic finished products.

Known concerns

  • H302 — harmfulful if swallowed
  • H315 — skin irritation
  • H319 — serious eye irritation
  • H335 — respiratory irritation
  • IFRA-restricted fragrance ingredient
