Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Octyl propionate has a complex, waxy odor reminiscent of myrtle
berries with a pineapple undertone. May be prepared by esterification
of n-octanol with propionic acid. | [Chemical Properties]
Octyl propionate has a complex, waxy odor reminiscent of myrtle berries with a pineapple undertone. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in oil of hop and strawberry fruit. | [Uses]
Octyl propionate has been suggested as a supporting note in warm-herbaceous and floral herbaceous fragrance types, and it blends very
well in Lavender, Lavandin, Rosemary, Juniperberry, Myrtle, Laurel and Bayleaf oils.
Although its odor has very little in common
with Myrtle, it lends a pleasant support of
softness, and reduces the cineolic notes in
Myrtle oil. It finds some use in flavor compositions, e. g. in Honey, Pineapple, various berry compositions, citrus complexes, Melon, Champignon, etc, but normally at very low concentrations - equal to 0.5 to 5 ppm in the functional product. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Octyl propanoate is a carboxylic ester. | [Preparation]
By esterification of n-octanol with propionic acid. | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, estry, fruity and berry with a tropical, jamy note. |
