 |  | Benzyl propionate Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID |  | Chemical Properties | Benzyl propionate is a liquid with a sweet, fruity odor, which is used in perfumery for floral,
fruity notes and in fruit flavor compositions. |  | Chemical Properties | Benzyl propionate has a sweet, fruity-floral odor and a peach-, apricot-like taste. |  | Occurrence | Reported found in strawberry and melon. |  | Uses | Benzyl Propionate is a flavoring agent which is liquid, colorless and 
has a sweet, fruity odor. it is soluble in most fixed oils and alcohol, 
slightly soluble in propylene glycol, and insoluble in glycerin. |  | Preparation | By esterification of benzyl alcohol with propionic acid. |  | Definition | ChEBI: Benzyl propionate is a carboxylic ester. It is functionally related to a benzyl alcohol. |  | Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 15 ppm: fruity, sweet, green and powdery with a ripe berry nuance. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 55, p. 5678, 1990 DOI: 10.1021/jo00309a007 Synthetic Communications, 25, p. 2435, 1995 DOI: 10.1080/00397919508015447 Synthesis, p. 853, 1990 DOI: 10.1055/s-1990-27034 |  | Biochem/physiol Actions | Taste at 30 ppm |
