Chemistry & Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Ethyl Butyrate is used to "redden" fruity notes, which means making them more ripe. Used in pineapple and exotic fruit combinations.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Ethyl Butyrate is present in apple, banana, Tagetes EO, kiwi, pineapple and many other vegetables. It can be obtained in its natural state only from plants from which an extract can be obtained.
Isomerism :
Caproic acid is a constitutional isomer of Ethyl Butyrate. It also has a butyric and cheesy note.
Synthesis precursor :
Ethyl Butyrate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Synthesis route :
Ethyl Butyrate is synthesized by an esterification reaction between butyric acid and Ethanol by acid catalysis.
Stability :
May form butyric acid through time.
Other comments :
Butyrates are reminiscent of ripe fruits, meanwhile caproates are more evoking foody and cheesy smells. This is the difference that can be made between Ethyl Butyrate and Ethyl Caproate for example.
