Colorless oily liquid.
Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Warm-fruity-floral odor of considerable tenacity. The tobacco-like notes seem to replace the honey-notes (in the lower esters), and the fruity theme is discretely apple-like. The odor is not as herbaceous-fungoid as that of the propionate, but not as warm either.
This ester has found some use in perfume compositions as a modifier in Fougères, Chy-pres, etc., since it blends so well with Oakmoss and Lavender, Coumarin and Amylsalicylate, etc.
It could find use in tobacco flavors, but it is not listed in the American G.R.A.S. list and should therefore not be included in food flavor compositions in the U.S.A.
Produced from Ethyleneglycol monomethyl-ether (Phenylcellosolve) with iso-Valeric acid by esterification under azeotropic conditions.
