Description

Allyl Heptanoate is a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid ester with a characteristic fruity, pineapple-like odor. This compound serves as a versatile and potent flavor and fragrance intermediate, prized for its ability to impart fresh, sweet, and waxy fruit notes. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the flavor and fragrance (F&F) industry for creating complex aroma profiles in food, beverages, and personal care products.

Application

• Flavor Formulation: A key ingredient for creating and enhancing pineapple, apple, pear, and other tropical fruit flavor compositions in beverages, candies, baked goods, and dairy products.
• Fragrance Creation: Used as a middle note in perfumery to add fresh, fruity, and slightly waxy nuances to fine fragrances, soaps, detergents, and air fresheners.
• Food Grade Aromas: Employed in the production of food-grade essences and natural-identical flavorings compliant with FEMA GRAS and FCC standards.
• Industrial Aromatics: Incorporated into household and industrial products such as cleaning agents and polishes to provide a pleasant, masking, or characteristic scent.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a building block or intermediate in organic synthesis for specialty chemicals and other ester derivatives.
