Colorless, slightly viscous liquid.
Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, miscible with most perfume and flavor materials. Poorly soluble in Propylene glycol and mineral oil, almost insoluble in Glycerin.
Distinctly fruity, but also somewhat woody odor, less sweet (more dry) than the Ethyl methyl pheny] glycidate.
Fruity, rather nondescript taste, unless incorporated in a complex with other flavor materials; quite powerful.
This ester is almost exclusively used in perfumery. It offers an interesting variation from the E.M.P.G. (regular) in that it may create Raspberry notes in combination with Ionones and other aromatics. It gives interesting effects with woody materials, Vetiver, Orris and the Cyclohexyl derivatives. Such combinations may serve as basis for Chypre or Oriental bases, etc.
Although not listed as G.R.A.S. by the U.S. Federal Register, this ester is probably used in other countries for its Raspberry effect in flavor compositions, and as a modification of the conventional E.M.P.G.
Produced by condensation of para-Methyl-benzaldehyde with Ethyl monochloroacetate in alkaline solution, using Sodamide as condensing agent.
