:1-Octen-3-yl butyrate
Description:
1-Octen-3-yl butyrate is an ester compound formed from the reaction of 1-octen-3-ol and butyric acid. It is characterized by its pleasant, fruity aroma, which makes it valuable in the flavor and fragrance industry. The molecular structure features a long carbon chain, contributing to its hydrophobic properties, while the ester functional group imparts volatility and reactivity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Its boiling point and other physical properties can vary based on environmental conditions and purity. 1-Octen-3-yl butyrate is often used in food flavoring, perfumery, and as a potential ingredient in cosmetic formulations. Additionally, it may exhibit antimicrobial properties, making it of interest in food preservation and safety. As with many esters, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water and acids or bases, reverting to its constituent alcohol and acid.
