Chemistry & industry
Applications
DescriptionOctyl acetate has a fruity odor reminiscent of neroli and jasmine with a fruity, slightly bitter taste suggestive of peach. May be synthesized by acetylation of the corresponding alcohol.
OccurrenceReported found in the essential oils of green tea, Heracleum giganteum L., orange peel, lemon peel, grapefruit peel, mandarin peel, Satsuma mandarin peel and pummelo peel. Also reported found in Ocimum basilicum varieties, wheaten bread, cheddar cheese, red wine, sparkling wine and nectarine.
UsesOctyl Acetate is a flavoring agent that is a colorless liquid with a fruity odor resembling orange and jasmine. It is miscible in alcohol, oils, and other organic solvents, and insoluble in water. It is obtained by chemical synthesis.
Uses1-Octyl Acetate is a component in essential oil extracts from Arnebia linearifolia which has been seen to promote antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. It is also a flavour ester contributing to products and foods requiring a fruity characteristic. Dyes and metabolites.
UsesOctyl acetate may be used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte in wine samples and orange juice by chromatography based techniques.
General DescriptionOctyl acetate is one of the major constituents of the essential oils of Heracleum crenatifolium, oranges and grapefruit.
