Appearance

Colorless oily liquid.

Solubility

Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Fresh, slightly oily-rosy, fruity odor reminiscent of Applepeel, Orange and Apricot, good tenacity.

Uses in perfumery

Occasionally used in perfumes as a modifier for Amy caprylate or similar fruity materials in lipstick fragrances or in bases where new fruity notes may be desirable.

Uses in flavor

Could find some use in flavor compositions, particularly in view of its good tenacity. It would act as a fixative on the lower boiling fruity chemicals and support the stability in flavors that become exposed to heat under preparation of the functional product (baked goods, candy, etc.).

Production

Produced by direct esterification of iso-Butanol with Nonoic acid under azeotropic conditions.
