A warm, sweet-balsamic fruity note with a cinnamic-furanone character reminiscent of stewed apple, plum jam and a whisper of caramel. Propyl 2-furanacrylate has a rounded, slightly resinous fruit-and-honey facet that leans into a soft spice as it dries.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Appearance

Pale yellowish or almost colorless liquid.

Solubility

Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Light, fruity, Strawberry-Applepeel and Pear-like odor of moderate to poor tenacity.

Flavor

Fresh, fruity-caramellic, sweet taste in concentrations below 40 ppm. Rather bitter at higher concentrations.

Uses in flavor

This material finds limited use in flavor compositions, and, in spite of its overall fruity character, it is most suitable for Honey, Nut and Coffee compositions, where its intense sweetening effect comes to use.

Production

Produced by azeotropic esterification of n-Propanol with Furanacrylic acid.
