Appearance

Pale straw-colored or almost colorless liquid.

Solubility

Very slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Sweet and floral-fruity odor of Petitgrain-Grapefruit type. Good tenacity and very attractive overall fragrance.

Flavor

Sweet, fruity Grape- and Grapefruit-like taste in concentrations below 20 ppm.

Uses in perfumery

The title material gives very interesting effects in modern Colognes of the 'old-fashioned' type, sometimes classified as 'Continental' types or described by the name of some of the best known European Citrus colognes. It is also of value in Jasmin, Gardenia, Honeysuckle, Neroli, etc., and in Oriental fragrance types.

Uses in flavor

The ester could undoubtedly find extensive use in flavor compositions, particularly in Citrus types, particularly Grapefruit, and it has a mellowing effect upon the American type of Grape flavor, which is predominantly a Methyl-anthranilate type, Concord Grape flavor. It could furthermore be used in 'Tutti-frutti', in Plum, Apricot, Mango, etc.

Production

Produced from iso-Butylanthranilate by Methylation or, more recently: from l-Methyl-isatoic anhydride plus iso-Butylalcohol by conventional esterification method.
