Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Benzyl Propionate is used in all types of perfumes, for the contribution of a fruity and tutti frutti effect (more used than benzyl acetate for this purpose). Used in yellow, exotic and red fruit, floral-jasmine and ambery notes.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Benzyl Propionate is present in trace amounts in Champaca Absolute or in melon for example, although it is not extracted in its natural state.
Isomerism :
Phenyl Ethyl acetate and Styrallyl acetate are constitution isomers of Benzyl Propionate. Nevertheless, Phenyl Ethyl acetate is more rosy and honeyed, and Styrallyl acetate is greener and more fruity, reminiscent of rhubarb.
Synthesis precursor :
Benzyl Propionate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Synthesis route :
Benzyl Propionate is synthesized by an esterification between propanoic acid and Benzyl Alcohol. This reaction must be catalysed by a strong concentrated acid such as sulfuric acid.
