PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Butyl butyryllactate is a diester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2-(butanoyloxy)propanoic acid with butan-1-ol. It has a role as a flavouring agent and a plant metabolite. It is a diester and a butyrate ester. It is functionally related to a 2-hydroxypropanoic acid and a butan-1-ol.
