Appearance

Colorless oily liquid.

Solubility

Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, miscible with essential oils, perfume and flavor chemicals.

Odor

Fruity-winey, somewhat fatty-oily odor, resembling that of wine residue, cognac residue or the like.

Flavor

In slightly acidified sugar solution, the taste is at the same time brandylike, Cognac, and Pineapple-fruity.

Uses in perfumery

Apparently, this ester finds very little use in perfumery, although it could be applied with advantage as a topnote ingredient to round off aldehydic or overly green notes in modern fragrance types.

Uses in flavor

This chemical finds some use in flavor compositions, in imitation fruit flavors, artificial Cognac, Rum, Wine, and in artificial 'Cognac oil'. It is applied in mere traces.

Production

Produced by direct esterification, from Allyl alcohol and Nonanoic acid, using azeotropic distillation to remove water.
