Appearance

Colorless or pale straw-colored, oily liquid.

Solubility

Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Sweet-fruity and slightly floral odor, the fruity notes being more cherry-and-plum like, while the floral undertone is jasmin-like.

Uses in perfumery

This peculiar odor has tempted some perfumers to use the material experimentally in jasmin and other fruity-floral compositions.

Production

Produced from 2,4-Dimethyl benzaldehyde plus ethyl chloroacetate plus sodamide or sodium ethylate as condensing agent.
