| | trans-2-Hexenyl acetate Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | trans-2-Hexen-l-yl acetate has a pleasant, fruity odor and corresponding taste. This substance may be synthesized by heating at
the boil l-bromohexen-2 -ol with sodium acetate and acetic acid.
| | Chemical Properties | 2-Hexen-1-yl acetate has a pleasant, fruity odor and corresponding taste.
| | Chemical Properties | clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid | | Chemical Properties | (E)-2-Hexenyl Acetate occurs in many
fruits and in some essential oils, for example, peppermint. It is a fresh, fruity,
slightly green-smelling liquid and is used in fruit flavors. | | Occurrence | Reported found in Fragaria vesca and other fruits; only the trans-form is known. Also reported in apple, apple
juice, apricot, bilberry, guava, peach, blackberry, strawberry fruit and jam, tomato, corn mint oil, spearmint oil, white and red wine,
tea, plum, plumcot, mushroom, starfruit, mango, banana and passion fruit. | | Definition | ChEBI: (E)-hex-2-enyl acetate is an acetate ester resulting from the formal condensation of the hydroxy group of (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol with the carboxy group of acetic acid. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a flavouring agent. It is an acetate ester and an olefinic compound. It is functionally related to an (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol. | | Preparation | By heating at the boil, 1-bromohexen-2-ol with sodium acetate and acetic acid.
| | Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, green, fresh and fruity with a waxy apple background. |
