Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and perfume materials.
Oily-green, herbal odor, reminiscent of fresh-cut flowers stems, rather bitter-green, but refreshing and natural.
This ether finds some use in perfumery as a modifier for the more violent green smelling chemicals. It is much less pungent than most of the conventional 'green' materials, but it is also rather 'specific' in its odor type, therefore not as versatile in use.
Produced from iso-Amyl alcohol and Heptanol by dehydration (in liquid form or in vapor form).
