Additional notes
DefinitionChEBI: Octyl benzoate is a benzoate ester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of benzoic acid with the hydroxy group of octan-1-ol. It is found in the leaves of lemon balm. It has a role as a fragrance and a plant metabolite. It is functionally related to a benzoic acid and an octan-1-ol.
