What is 3-PHENYLPROPYL ISOBUTYRATE?
Chemical properties
CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID
Chemical properties
3-Phenylpropyl isobutyrate has a sweet, balsamic odor and a bittersweet flavor reminiscent of peach. It has a finer and fresher odor than the corresponding n-butyrate.
The Uses of 3-PHENYLPROPYL ISOBUTYRATE
3-Phenylpropyl isobutyrate finds some use in Jasmin compositions, partly as a modifier for Benzyl-isobutyrate, partly as a supporting note for
fruity-balsarnic ingredients. It works well with
Styrax, which tends to produce a rather
"dead" note in floral compositions.
3-Phenylpropyl isobutyrate also finds use in flavor compositions, mainly in imitation Apple, Apricot,
Peach, Pear, Pineapple, Plum, Quince, etc.
and the concentration used is equivalent to
about 1 to 5 ppm in the finished product.
Preparation
By esterification of hydrocinnamic alcohol with n-butyric acid.
