Appearance

Colorless, slightly viscous liquid.

Solubility

Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, miscible with oils.

Odor

Mild and heavy-sweet, honey-rose type odor with a raspberry-fruity undertone.

Uses in perfumery

This ester is occasionally used in perfume compositions as a modifier in Oriental and heavy floral fragrance types. Its tenacity and good blending abilities make it a relatively useful material, although it is not regularly available from the manufacturers of perfume chemicals.

Production

Produced by azeotropic esterification of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol with phenylacetic acid.
