PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
3-methylbutyl hexanoate is a fatty acid ester obtained by the formal condensation of the carboxy group of hexanoic acid (caproic acid) with the alcoholic hydroxy group of 3-methylbutan-1-ol (isoamylol). It has a role as a metabolite and a fragrance. It is functionally related to an isoamylol.
