Hexyl hexanoate Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionHexyl hexanoate has a herbaceous odor. May be synthesized by passing n-hexyl alcohol over CuO + UO3 catalyst at 220 - 310°C, or by treating n-hexyl alcohol with Ca(Br03)2 and diluted aqueous HBr at 30°C.
Chemical PropertiesHexyl hexanoate has an herbaceous odor
Chemical PropertiesOily liquid
OccurrenceReported found in apple, apricot, banana, sweet cherry, orange peel oil, guava, grapes, melon, papaya, strawberry fruit and jam, tomato, Parmesan cheese, rum, cider, sherry, grape wine, black tea, passion fruit, plum, mushroom, starfruit, quince, cherimoya, mountain papaya, black choke cherry, spineless monkey orange, Chinese quince peel and hog plum (Spondias mombins L.)
DefinitionChEBI: Hexyl hexanoate is a hexanoate ester obtained by the formal condensation of the carboxy group of hexanoic acid (caproic acid) with hexan-1-ol. It is a constituent found in passion fruit, apples, strawberries and wine. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a volatile oil component, a flavouring agent and a fragrance. It is functionally related to a hexan-1-ol.
PreparationBy passing n-hexyl alcohol over CuO + UO3 catalyst at 220 to 310°C, or by treating n-hexyl alcohol with Ca(BrO3)2 and diluted aqueous HBr at 30°C
Aroma threshold valuesDetection: 6.4 ppm
Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 40 ppm: sweet, fruity and green with tropical notes.
