Utilisation

Chemistry & Uses

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Natural availability :

Heptyl acetate is present in several plants and can be extracted from Ginger EO. Synthetic Heptyl acetate remains the most used in perfumery.

Isomerism :

Heptyl acetate does not have any isomer used in perfumery.

Synthesis precursor :

Heptyl acetate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.

Synthesis route :

Heptyl acetate is obtained in synthesis by an esterification reaction between acetic acid or acetic anhydride with Heptanol, in the presence of an acid catalyst such as concentrated sulfuric acid.

Stability :

acetates may form acetic acid through time

Other comments :

In comparision to Hexyl acetate, Heptyl acetate has a more rosy and metallic facet, and is less juicy.
