Chemistry & Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Geranyl Butyrate is used in fruity notes - pineapple, apple, peach and pear. Enhances a fruity effect when associated to rosy notes.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Natural availability :

Geranyl Butyrate is especially present in Geranium EO, from which it can be extracted in its natural state.

Isomerism :

Neryl Butyrate, a diastereoisomer of Geranyl Butyrate is less rosy but keeps a butyric and waxy aspect specific to butyrates.

Synthesis precursor :

Geranyl Butyrate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Synthesis route :

Geranyl Butyrate results from an esterification reaction between Butyric Acid and Geraniol, by acid catalysis. The use of chlorobutyric acid or butyric anhydride may provide a better yield on this reaction.

Stability :

May form butyric acid through time.

Other comments :

Geranyl Butyrate is one of the only molecules of perfumery mixing a rosy and butyric note.
