Description

Hexanal is a volatile aldehyde that is emitted from host plants when they are damaged. It is an important component of the scent of many flowers and fruits. Hexenal has been identified as a major contributor to the aroma of apples, oranges, bananas, and green beans. Hex-3-en-1-yl propionate (HEP) is an ester derived from hexanal and propionic acid. The HEP functional group has been shown to be an important contributor to the flavor and odor profile of apple fruit. Diethyl succinate (DES) is a natural product that contains both hexadecanoic acid and ethyl cinnamate functional groups, which have been found to contribute to the flavor of apple fruit. Phenethyl propionate (PP) is another natural product that contains both hexadecanoic acid and phenethyl alcohol functional groups, which have been found to contribute to the flavor of apple fruit.
