isoamyl caprate

Description:
Isoamyl caprate, also known as isoamyl decanoate, is an ester formed from isoamyl alcohol and capric acid. It is characterized by its pleasant fruity aroma, often reminiscent of bananas or pears, making it a popular choice in the flavor and fragrance industries. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a low viscosity. Isoamyl caprate has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Its molecular structure contributes to its volatility and aromatic properties, which are utilized in food flavoring and cosmetic formulations. Additionally, isoamyl caprate is considered to have low toxicity, making it suitable for use in food applications. However, like many esters, it should be handled with care to avoid potential skin or respiratory irritation. Overall, isoamyl caprate is valued for its sensory attributes and functional properties in various industrial applications.
