About

An anthranilate-type UV absorber and fragrance component combining a cyclohexenyl methyleneamino group with a methyl benzoate core.

This complex anthranilate derivative serves dual functions as UV filter component and fragrance material. It is not listed in EU Annexes I through VI for UV filters, suggesting cosmetic-grade usage as a fragrance or aromatic ingredient only. The dimethylcyclohexenyl methyleneamino group presents moderate sensitization concern under SCCS evaluation, warranting IFRA-guided concentration limits in leave-on products.

Known concerns

  • Sensitization potential requiring IFRA usage guidelines
  • Not approved as a UV filter in EU Annex VI
