Chemistry & Uses

Chemistry & Uses

Uses in perfumery :

Isoamyl Butyrate is used in all types of perfumes, for fruity-red, yellow and exotic notes. Boosts head notes and provides power and diffusivity.

Year of discovery :

Data not available.

Natural availability :

Isoamyl Butyrate is present in many fruits in particular, and can be extracted from mastic.

Isomerism :

Allyl Caproate and gamma-Nonalactone are constitutional isomers of Isoamyl Butyrate. Allyl Caproate also has a fruity and butyric note, but gamma-Nonalactone has a very different peach and coconut smell.

Synthesis precursor :

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

Synthesis route :

Isoamyl Butyrate is synthesized by an esterification reaction between butyric acid and isoamyl alcohol, or 3-Methylbutanol, using an acid catalyst.

Stability :

May form butyric acid through time.
