Description

Allyl Butyrate is a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid ester with a characteristic fruity, pineapple-like aroma. This compound is a versatile flavor and fragrance intermediate prized for its ability to impart fresh, sweet, and ripe fruit notes. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the flavor & fragrance, food & beverage, and specialty chemical industries. Its distinct organoleptic properties make it a key component in creating complex synthetic aromas and flavors.

Application

• Flavor & Fragrance Formulation: A key ingredient for creating and enhancing pineapple, apple, peach, and other tropical fruit flavor profiles in food, beverages, and confectionery.
• Perfumery & Cosmetics: Used as a fragrance component in soaps, detergents, lotions, and fine perfumes to add fresh, fruity top notes.
• Food Additive Production: Serves as a synthetic flavoring agent in processed foods, baked goods, and soft drinks under appropriate regulatory guidelines (e.g., FEMA GRAS).
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a valuable building block or intermediate in organic synthesis for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other specialty esters.
• Industrial Aromas: Employed in the production of air fresheners, household cleaners, and other scented industrial products.
